Pros

It’s a good place to start your career fresh out of college that’s it.

Cons

- No real content calendar - No KPIs - No content strategy just whatever the President or VP is being yelled at about that gets passed down the chain - Managers and other coworkers more concerned with gossip about who was fired last or literally anything else. Unless it was a team meeting I don’t really remember talking about work much. - No organization. Quite literally they throw sh*t at the fan and hope it works. From last minute buggy product releases to asking for large request to be done in two days and then having to fight for the actual things you need to get the article done. Maybe leadership does care but there’s so much corporate red tape they can’t do anything. All I saw was leadership looking like they were just trying to keep their head above water or ride out the last couple years until retirement. I know the horror stories start and are well known in Richmond. But they’re alive and very much real in Atlanta.

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
