Pros

Open communication with management. Company values and mission are forward looking and progressive. Ability to pivot and listen to feedback/new ideas as necessary. Compass has created a culture that has never existed in the real estate world.

Cons

A challenge moving forward to be aware of is maintaining the culture.

Pros

Good reputation, fancy PR, marketing, offices, office snacks, office administration, and tech. All very good and likely first in class.

Cons

Terrible management. Worst Finance Department in the business. Sells false short-term contract with good splits for commissions, but after the initial term expires you automatically revert to a commission table applicable to all agents that is the worst and most egregious in the industry. Also, the worst part is that they sell a complete false story about being more honest, upstanding, and honorable about how they approach brokerage, but in the end they are just as bad or worse than other big firms. They are steadily marching towards a sale or IPO that will greatly enrich the E-class, but none of the agents and are doing so on the backs of the agents.

Pros

The technology, marketing and management talent, and level of support for agents is currently unmatched in the real estate industry. I spent time at William Raveis and Jack Conway and Compass blows them away in these very important areas. Not even close. The office culture is also awesome because Compass is very careful about hiring talented/hardworking people who all contribute to a positive work environment. Over the last 20 years I have been a Broker/Owner and worked for Raveis and Conway, and joining Compass is by far the best business decision I have ever made.

Cons

Not joining Compass sooner!
