Pros

Great pay for a first job post college. Fun coworkers everybody is young and it feels kind of like college. Café is great quality food cheap price. Will give you an opportunity if you have a degree.

Cons

You will be micro-managed, glorified call center, and no real skills are being developed except communication skills. You will be expected to cold call in an effort to fish information out of tenants Metric driven role. Company feels that it is being ran on the fly versus well thought out strategic processes. There is a bit of an unpolished feel the company is constantly changing and can be a bit overwhelming as this is your livelihood. CEO is cut from a Jordan Belfort/Donald Trump cloth

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
