Pros

Great Perks and benefits for web designers (aka engineers). Free lunches, great salary, free sports tickets. Just read all the good reviews, they all come from the engineers.

Cons

Real Estate agents- Are over worked. 70-80hr weeks for very low pay. The middle managers do not know anything. Its the blind leading the blind. Glenn CEO, Scott VP of Reops claim to have a Open door policy: HA! What a joke. Yes the door is open and you can come in with your problem, but once you walk out, you get fired. I have witness this numerous times already, good people let go because they were trying to help make Redfin a better place. I see current employees pretend to be happy, knowing that they dread their job. They hate the management team. For a company which cares about reviews and NPS scores so much. The companies own NPS score is so low. No training: They claim to have a training program. terrible, terrible. They don't have the slightest clue how to train people and motivate them. Again the blind leading the blind. I have never seen such waste of time and money. Company likes to train and create cheerleaders. Growth in the company: Yes the company is growing, yes they hire within, but what they do is promote their friends not the best for the job. I have seen this numerous times already. It all starts from the top: Glenn CEO, very smart guy, great engineer and developer. Problem is that he has zero experience running a real estate company, never been a licensed agent, does not have a clue how to generate revenue in real estate. All decisions begin and end with Glenn. Read all the reviews decide for yourself. Better yet Experience it for yourself. Once you do, Bookmark this, come back to this review and know that I was 100% correct.
