Setting themselves up to fail

Pros

CEO vision is ambitious Decent salary for a mindless job

Cons

CEO places little to zero value in broader group of employees. As was seen in the way they dealt with layoffs during COVID. Lower level leadership is hit or miss, some are clueless Fake culture. At least while it was remote. Lower level leadership talk about their direct reports behind their backs amongst themselves. Be better, say it upfront and if your employees are coachable they will produce better results Zero growth opportunities and managers do not care about personal development.

Pros

• Strong brand recognition in certain luxury markets • Exposure to high-performing agents and teams • Opportunity to develop relationship-building and recruiting skills • Some talented and supportive colleagues across offices

Cons

• Frequent changes to compensation structures and incentives make recruiting increasingly difficult • Declining value proposition relative to cost (splits/fees) creates resistance from prospective agents • Reduction in marketing support limits ability to attract and convert talent • Territory saturation and internal competition following large acquisitions has significantly reduced TAM • Expectations for growth have not adjusted in line with market and structural changes • Heavy emphasis on activity and visibility vs. measurable outcomes • Limited flexibility in adapting strategy at the local level In short - go elsewhere the Growth Org is now obsolete after the acquisition
