CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Its a job Jim does a great job as CEO - if its just a figure-head, pr speaker, or business related decision - He isnt involved in the running of the corp office where help IS needed. (for the minimum staff)

Cons

They dont promote hard workers, continually the same individuals move 'up' They want to say the lead the way in technology yet dont provide it to the workers to test with and use.

Good for Realtors, staff is another thing.

Business Outlook

Pros

As a realtor it is a probably an ok place to work. There seems to be good programs for realtors to grow if they apply themselves.

Cons

As a staff person compensation is below average. I was one of the higher paid staff persons there. Most staff people did not make over $30,000 a year. Many of the realtors can be disrespectful when they don't get there way. Also, there is no room for professional growth as a staff member. Perhaps a place to work in you are in between jobs or you are satisfied with being stagnant. They do not allow staff to give input to improve conditions in the work environment. You are pretty much there just to take up space.
