Pros

-CoStar provides all training needed to succeed within the various roles -The company cares about its employees and tries to keep the morale high by doing monthly bonus review parties. Bonuses for top performers can range from $500 to $2000 a month -Other perks provided are snacks in the break areas, monthly stipend for lunch, gym membership, decent healthcare, tuition reimbursement for college students (part time $2,500 full time $5,000)

Cons

-The tenant surveyor and research roles can become a bit repetitive -All the research roles require nonstop calling to tenants it fries the brain and by lunch time every day you just want the day to be over -It is a good company to start out with but if you want to make a career in the company switch to a different department besides research unless you love cold calling -The performance metrics are often times based on superficial details and do not always represent actual performance accurately. However, people who try can meet the metrics. -The company very much has a college frat bro culture that is just childish -Shifts can range from 8am-8pm Monday to Friday and you may be switched over to a shift schedule that you do not want
