Pros

There are no pros at all, stay away

Cons

Ask about reversals while interviewing. As a sales rep you will take over a book of business/territory. If a client in your book cancels (that you didn't sign up) your net sales number for that month will be negatively impacted. The company has been jacking up the prices over the last 15+ years on their customers and generally have awful relationships with their customers. Management is extremely unhelpful, negative, and only care about the bottom line revenue. It's probably the most toxic, negative, and least collaborative corporate environment I've ever been a part of. Strong recommendation to stay away.

CoStar Group Response
6y
Thank you for the 2 years you spent with us at CoStar Group. We regret that your personal experience was not representative of the very high employee engagement scores our Sales team and company receive each year. We listen to feedback from our team, and in response to that feedback, we announced some very important, very positive changes at our annual sales conference in January 2020 that address issues surrounding cancellations and how they impact all reps. As you are aware, our commitment to our clients is a massive priority at CoStar Group, and our Net Promoter Score from both CoStar and Apartments.com clients is above 9. We are always looking to improve, and your feedback is much appreciated. We wish you all the success in your next career move.

Pros

I worked for Homes.com - Great first job out of college to learn a lot about sales and can make good money in the first 3 months - FIND PEOPLE THAT HAVE DONE THIS JOB AND HAVE LEFT AND FIGURE OUT WHY CUZ THEY'LL TELL YOU

Cons

I worked for Homes.com - You're doing 3 jobs in one and the pay does not reflect that - it is churn and burn. The average tenure here is 7 months - Management doesn't know what's going on 3/4 of the time. It is all up to the CEO and he's on his private jet more than 3/4 of the time
