Pros

Ethics training which indicates a desire to be an ethical company. Great chance for growth for those that seize the opportunity. Lots of good people to work with. Some of the leadership is great to work for.

Cons

Unethical either due to choice or lack of training on the part of some of the employees about PTSD. Alleged illegal termination of Military Veteran with PTSD (Have full evidence of this on my computer.) Alleged illegal discrimination of Military Veteran with PTSD (Have full evidence of this on my computer.) Threw out $170 of personal items after termination, also failed to return mirage anniversary keepsake.

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
