Pros

Pros: - Open office with friendly co workers - Flexible work from home hours - Collaborative environment - Good company culture - Catering for lunch - I'm learning new technology

Cons

Cons: - A few long time employees have left, which hasn't been good for morale - While the product/engineering department is great, it is hard to balance the start-up vibe of the department with an overall corporate culture (although they are really trying to work on this) - The annual review process is very time consuming - The company is growing quickly, and sometimes its easy to loose the fun culture that attracted people to Compass in the first place

The Best Place I've Ever Worked

Pros

So much talent and agility, so much promise, a culture that is second to none. Management truly cares about the employee experience, benefits are generous, the work environment is beautiful, competitors are envious and have begun copying us. Employees are ambitious and dedicated. The success is reflected in our valuation and caliber of investors. If you're offered, say yes.

Cons

I would only be nitpicking.

Pros

Friendly: Nearly everyone (across all departments) is super welcoming, friendly and more than willing to lend a hand if needed. The teams consists of energetic, smart and motivated people, and still manage to strike a work/life balance. Creative: From the managerial staff to fellow colleagues, there's encouragement to push the brand forward, to innovate, and think outside the box. In a corporate environment, the creative aspects of a role are usually limited but here they're embraced. Collaborative: With so many regional offices and a large HQ team (in NYC) there's a lot of moving parts and opportunities to collaborate. The tools and technology are all in place to communicate nationwide. We're encouraged to learn and collaborate with other regions as well as get support from the big machine in the city.

Cons

Work is not limited to the workplace, in some instances we're expected to turn around projects outside of typical work hours (i.e. late evening/weekends).
