Pros

Coldwell Banker is by far the Gold Standard. As a new realtor you need all the help you can get, and their training and broker mentorship are absolutely outstanding. Not to mention their marketing platform is second to none, giving you are large arsenal when going on listing presentations.

Cons

Their fees and splits are a bit high, but when you compare it to paying for everything individually (like at many other offices and brokerages) it really ends up coming out about the same.

Pros

1. Family-like environment, friendly co-workers and staff 2. Opportunity to learn and grow within the company; it all really depends on how much you're willing to do.

Cons

Management does not know how to manage or lead. But they don't realize this because no one is willing to (or can) stand up and talk about it.
