Pros

CoStar is a great place to start your career out of college, as well as revive a stalled career. When I started a year and a half ago, I thought the Tenant Research position would be a transitional job, one to hold me over until I found something more in my field. In that time, I've grown to enjoy my job most of the time. If you rely on your managers, they will help you develop your skills and understand the importance of the work and research being conducted. Being a call center environment, one needs to understand the importance of the metrics and being held accountable for the work being done. Clients count on us for complete and accurate information. For that, we are paid well and given benefits that exceed most expectations. We are also given a monthly lunch allotment, free snacks, incentives, and access to a company chef.

Cons

Expectations and assignments can change quickly. While that's not necessarily a bad thing, it could take time to adapt to the changes. Again, understanding the why of the reason these things happen will make the job a whole lot easier.

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
