Pros

The job itself was great. Absolutely no complaints about the job itself. Friendly tenants at the location I was working at.

Cons

The management was corrupt. They were childhood friends and always had each others back for everything. There was an issue with racism I felt needed to be addressed and when I did get corporate involved, it ultimately led to me losing my job a few months later because the management felt threatened by me.

Pros

Steady income, flexible hours, generally decent properties and coworkers. Decent income although bonuses were taken away and they often replaced higher salary employees with lower salary ones.

Cons

Upper management male employees are a good old boys club. They hired younger men, but it got worse. The younger ones weren't unwittingly chauvinist, they actually enjoyed dominating women. They hired their male buddies who had no experience for huge salaries while they dismissed female employees as incompetent.

Pros

Great training portal, work from home opportunities, started out well but the second a client is unhappy or your boss is in trouble you will get used as a scapegoat.

Cons

VERY easy to “overstep” or say the wrong thing, need to follow strict etiquette on who you talk to on other teams and watch every word you say. There is a lot of blaming and passing responsibility- I’m shocked that upper leadership believed lies that my boss told them to make herself look better but anything I said to the contrary made me look like I “didn’t take feedback well”. When people leave (and there is crazy high turnover in client accounting) there are many times the position isn’t backfilled and the work falls on everyone who is left there. The last few years they’ve either had no raises or pushed back raises several months. I understand that it’s a rocky time for commercial real estate but the loyal employees that are taking on a ton of work from people who quit just don’t deserve this. I now know how much I was underpaid at cushman. Finally, this is very specific to my team so I hope it’s not too widespread, but my boss would spend 95% of team meetings and our one-on-ones complaining about her life, kids, and credit card debt. No one else hardly ever got a word in and it was so unprofessional and a waste of time. I did complain to HR but nothing came of it and there was definitely backlash from me doing that.
