Pluspunten

Perks like lunch, coffee and snacks. Working from home - especially if you cannot find childcare.

Minpunten

Utilizing perks like working from home because of no available childcare is used against you. Managers pass the buck for their failures onto others below. Company doesn't foster team work or independent thinking, managers pit people against each other and solicit finger-pointing whenever they can. People & Culture and the whole employee review process is an absolute mess only topped by how dysfunctional SalesForce setup is and how everything is managed by excel spreadsheets. Trying to maintain 20-30 different sheets to track all the work that isn't getting done. Broken processes that existed before I joined that no one cared to fix. Majority of the work requiring direction/approval of a manager. Overtime work that isn't paid at overtime pay. My manager trash talked about other agents, and other Compass employees but expected top notch customer service skills from everyone on the team. Had to listen to people's political views often enough, please check personal at the door, this is a place of business. A lot of time spent tracking, changing, updating, correcting, workarounds, etc., nothing gets fixed. Policies aren't enforced or don't exist. Manager spent more time shopping than time spent offering actual guidance. Managers also steal your ideas - holding one on one meetings just to catch up and later claiming these meetings were about performance is deceptive. Managers using metrics designed for a different purpose, metrics they don't clearly understand and/or erroneous.

Pluspunten

People are smart. Very much a “move fast and break things” culture which can be refreshing compared to bureaucracy-heavy corporate life. I don’t agree with their values (if they have any) but what they’re doing is unquestionably working - business outlook is strong.

Minpunten

Leadership will tell you there’s no ego or self-interest involved in their strategy - that is untrue. It’s an extremely heliocentric culture around the CEO. A lot of the work is based around what people they're guessing he’ll like, but there’s no alignment at the outset and something you worked on for weeks/months will be trashed after one look from him. Their mission is ostensibly about empowering agents but they are solving a problem that pretty much no one was complaining about before they started, and which just so happens to work highly in their favor in terms of market share. It’s just business but very disingenuous- don’t believe the hype that it’s altruistic somehow. Also the CEO loves to share his sob story about his single mother upbringing, but simultaneously enacts some of the most anti-parent policies you could think of.
