Thank you for your feedback. Our goal is for all employees to feel engaged and energized in their role, while continuing to grow their skills, learn new things and be challenged. Over the past two years, the company has made significant investments in training at all levels of the organization. We've rolled out more advanced product training, conducted multiple sales strategy and messaging sessions and partnered with LinkedIn Learning to provide a robust library of courses available to employees spanning numerous different topics. We have also rolled out a more targeted manager training program recently, which is helping to strengthen the skills of our people managers and allows for better communication and collaboration between managers and employees. These programs and opportunities are designed for employees looking to grow personally and professionally within the organization, while also delivering the product or function-specific knowledge needed to succeed at CoStar Group. We will continue to listen to feedback in order to grow our training programs and ensure we are able to meet and exceed the training needs of our employees. We wish you the best in your future endeavors.

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
