Pros

- Benefits (401k,vision,health,dental,legal) - Great work relationships among researchers and some managers - Entry level exposure to commercial real estate market from researcher's prospective

Cons

- Lack of management skill set for most of the current managers. - Task management and prioritization skills from managers is lacking which carries over to researchers. Every task that comes to the employees desk is a priority. - Did not feel as if most managers were concerned about the future development of employees but rather if they can met or even better exceed unrealistic expectations - I feel that the managers were not so great at asserting strengths and weaknesses of individuals on team - Work performance measuring metrics are constantly changing and the weight to each measuring metric is in a constant shift. Also, work performance reviews are not fair. - Most of the managers adopt a micro management style

Pros

Flexible schedule, lots of marketing materials.

Cons

Very demanding and stressful. Unattainable goals, not enough training. Everyone that leaves is on some sort of anxiety meds!
