Pros

The people you work with and the fact that there is free food.

Cons

Absolutely miserable place to work. Commission structure changes constantly and what they tell you going in about the potential to make a lot is completely false. List are no longer given and you are stuck calling the same people over and over just to make 80 calls when the list is less than 20 people given maybe once a month if lucky. You are forced to "prospect" but most of the time if you find a worthy potential customer, an AE will call over and steal your deal entirely. The system is so messed up and unfair and make it nearly impossible to make quota. Work life balance is terrible. You have to clock out every time you even venture downstairs to grab a snack. You are constantly watched and micromanaged. It feels like an adult day care but while in time out. They are good at selling you the job during the interview; however, don't fall into the trap. You will regret it forever and be constantly miserable. Save yourself and STAY AWAY! People that work there are constantly dropping like flies; the turnover rate is insane. CoStar is a revolving door of employees. Not a place you want to start your career, or to ever work.

Pros

This company makes a strong first impression during the interview and training process. Unfortunately, my experience after onboarding was very different. Decision-making is highly centralized, leaving employees with very little autonomy. The company emphasizes ethics and integrity, but my experience did not consistently reflect those values. Favoritism also appeared to play a significant role in how employees were treated and how decisions were made. HR presents itself as a resource for employees, but concerns often end with, “It will be up to your manager.” That can be frustrating when the issue involves your manager or requires an impartial review. CoStar has developed a reputation for these issues, and from what I experienced, it wasn’t always this way. A few years ago, the company at least appeared to prioritize its employees. Today, that commitment feels diminished. The return-to-office expectations can also be unreasonable. During severe weather, employees are still expected to report to the office even when many other companies in the area allow employees to work remotely for safety. Finally, performance expectations and metrics are frequently changed, making goals increasingly difficult to achieve. Combined with inconsistent communication from leadership, it creates an environment where employees often feel unsupported and uncertain about expectations.

Cons

Good Health Benefits for families and singles Decent pay
