Our training program for our sales teams, along with our numerous training and continuing education opportunities, are one of the many things that we are most proud of here at CoStar. You are correct that there is always a high percentage of turnover in any sales roles. Some of our turnover can be attributed to the promotions that are earned by our sales team members. With that noted, given our tremendous growth over the years, we are always looking for people to join our sales teams in markets throughout the United States, Canada and the UK. We do not like to hear that you feel that you are 'just a number' to management, as our employees are our most valuable resource. We will continue to refine internal communications methods, but always encourage our team members to share feedback, including concerns, with any member of our upper management team. We are happy to have you as a member of the CoStar team.

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
