Pros

Compass is a really great company to work for. Good people. Amazing benefits. Great additional perks. They are also working really hard to create amazing things for the world of real estate. It's a fresh, innovative company.

Cons

Sometimes departments should communicate better. It's hard to be effective when one hand doesn't know what the other is doing. Also, there should be better delegation of who reports to who all the way down the ladder.
