Pros

They really know how to buy and dismantle successful local companies.

Cons

All questions and requests must go through the all-powerful Help Desk unfortunately, 75% of the time the answer is, "oh, sorry. I can't help you with that. Have you tried calling X?" BTW, your answer is always, "YES, X told me they couldn't help and that I had to call the Help Desk."

Pros

Recognition due to the name

Cons

Although we are independent contractors,the broker continues to micromanage and it’s unbelievable how much money they take from our commissions.

Pros

I loved working with the agents. It was a good way to get into marketing especially if you have real estate experience.

Cons

There is no upwards mobility. This company invests heavily into diversity and if you are not part of a certain demographic, you will not get promoted. There were also frequent layoffs while I was there.
