Pros

Lots of education in person or online. The managing broker is outstanding. Fully flexible schedule.

Cons

The commission split its 70/30 (but really 64/36 with the royalty fee on every transaction). There is an 18.5k cap but that’s not super easy to hit.

Pros

Not the most high pressure job ever. You can usually leave work at work.

Cons

Antiquated management style, low pay, low appreciation. Management often takes the opinions and needs of staff for granted. COVID has proved that they’re willing to put staff in harm’s way to stroke an agent’s ego. Despite that nearly all staff can do all work 90% remotely, we’ve been called back in to work full time because agents “like it” and no other reason. They’ve demonstrated that they care neither about the moral nor safety for their staff. Frankly, we’re not paid enough, given enough growth opportunities, or have good enough benefits to care this much.
