You'll get lost in the crowd

Agent

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Office Staff in general had great personalities

Cons

Required to be at sales meetings and took away 'benefits' if you did not attend or go on office tours. Also, they bury in a $200 transaction fee and at the next sales meeting, they actually name and clap for the agents that were able to screw their sellers out of the extra $200. Classy

Felt more like an administrative job than a marketing job

Marketing coordinator

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good work hours - started right at 8 and ended right at 5. Never had to stay any later than that. My co-staff members and most of the realtors in my office were great.

Cons

When I was working at CB it felt a lot more like an administrative assistant/front desk receptionist job rather than a marketing coordinator job which I felt like was not advertised properly while applying and during the interview - which was my main gripe about the job. There were times where it definitely looked and felt like they took greater care of their agents than they did with their own office staff. It doesn't really feel good when you can tell that they're investing so much in their realtors that the office staff get the short end of the stick. Pay and benefits weren't great. No upward mobility (!!!).

Pros

I can leave when the contract ends

Cons

Horrible Marketing. Steer agents to subsidiary businesses under the guise it is benefitting them. Jacked up additional fees to clients.
