Pros

The children do give me some good anecdotes to tell my friends, who think I’m lying because it’s literally so ridiculous this this type of behaviour happens.

Cons

Stop promoting self-indulgent back stabbing idiots to managers without an interview, this only fuels their uncalled for egos and I think it’s against the law, I maybe wrong but I thought a job had to be advertised? With the exception of the three individuals who transferred from Glasgow the remainder of the management team resemble a teen comedy who only care about playing favourites, hitting the pub after work and discussing the current hot topic, Weddings! They have been overheard openly gossiping and bullying other members of staff and plotting people’s demise. It’s petulant, immature and shows how classless you are. People are approached fresh from uni and told about the bright new future that CoStar can offer? Stop, I beg you. Stop allowing educated individuals to waste their time.

Thank you for your feedback and your time for writing a review. We use these reviews as part of our ongoing efforts to improve the training and increase the performance of our managers. At CoStar, we take development very seriously and managers are supplied with training to equip them to carry out their roles as expected. They are accountable for practising the behaviours we have taught and using the resources that we provide to help. It is their job to ensure best practices are maintained. However, while we have a high performance culture, we also have a very inclusive and social work environment where we want our employees to bring themselves fully to work and share important life events such as getting married. We feel this is an important part of building a positive CoStar culture. If you have specific feedback you would like to share, please reach out and email HR separately. We aim to uphold the performance of our research management team and we are pleased to hear that our more experienced managers have made a good impression!
