Pros

Great place to start your career in marketing, design

Cons

Very minimal growth potential in work load and responsibilities, title advancement, as well as salary. For those assigned to branch offices, extra work is delegated in regards to administrative and clerical work, not to mention light IT support for agents. Some offices do not offer private spaces for staff members, but instead open work spaces. Marketing in branch offices are limited to 1 or 2 staff members, unlike a whole team at other leading brokerages. No support from branch manager.

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.
