Not the best environment

Associate real estate manager

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Decent pay, good benefits, offices are nice.

Cons

Work life balance is non existent, managers are robots and all they care about is everyone doing most the work while they sit back, or work from home and not do much. HR does not care when you complain about someone.

Great company, but did not handle pandemic well

Business Outlook

Pros

Some of the best brokers in the industry, and you can work up to being one. Not micromanaged, tools for success.

Cons

When the pandemic hit, they reduced a lot of low paid workers a percentage of their salary while higher ups didn't take much. What really got me is the third time the regional manger called us to tell us we were going another stint on pay reduction, he did not take it seriously and was cracking jokes while everyone looked upset, then just hung up. I saw some people on that call with terrible faces after that. That was my reason for leaving.

Business Outlook

Pros

Pay is commensurate with experience. Raises are flat 3%, which isn't great, but better than nothing. Benefits are decent and 401K good.

Cons

Micromanaged to death with targets to reach each month, daily huddles that only tell you what you are doing wrong, mandatory tracking and logging of all work completed - like every minute on the clock you have to account for what you are doing in the form of a work order or training etc. Its freakin ridiculous!!!
