KWRI/kwx — lots of potential but real change is needed

Business Outlook

Pros

KWRI/kwx is full of some extremely hard working, very kind, and good people. The work can be very satisfying and it does feel like you are making a positive impact on the lives of real estate agents. In the time that I worked there, salary became more competitive and benefits became better too. It felt like the company was modernizing and improving their compensation packages to compete with other local employers like Indeed, Amazon, Facebook, etc. Profit Share was extremely generous prior to the pandemic.

Cons

Departments are woefully understaffed and workloads are extremely high. Very demanding/impossible deadlines and corporate strategy seems to change overnight based on the whims of executives. Department leaders and staff are rarely consulted on the areas of their expertise or on what reasonable turnarounds are. Very top down, traditional, corporate leadership. Few women or people of color in high ranking positions.

I was a new agent for 4 months then they dropped me because I hadn't made enough sales

Pros

There are a ton of meetings and learning opportunities and people there are awesome.

Cons

You do not have a mentor or someone to help you find what you want your business model to be their model is the only model they want you to follow. Out dated business model and pressure to pay for more classes. They don't tell you that you have to make x amount of sales or they let you go.
