Pros

Great coworker, I have made the best friends Free Food Decent benefits but are getting worse each year There is a lot to learn if you can also can learn it on the side while making your calls and checking on the boxes that show that you are a good employee Lots of young employees who like to grab a beer after work, great "how to make costar better" conversations after work because the only people who can understand what it is like to work for costar is other costar employees.

Cons

If you do not come out of the gates after training and get noticed, you might as well just leave. Because your prospect for success diminishes after 6 months of being there. After a year, you are ready to leave, and if get lucky with a decent manager that actually cares about you and your future as a professional worker, than you can make it longer. You have to find some bit of joy in job, focus on that, and try to make it through all the other crap they like to shell out. They like to dump a bunch of projects on you at the last second, and treat it like its life or death to finish it, then it just goes away. Where did it go? Why did I stop everything to work on this project for nothing to come of it, and then get asked why I don't have enough phone calls. If you start this company, in the first 6 months, just don't think about learning anything, just pick up the phone and call and talk to someone, anyone... Its not about who you talk to, its just about how long you talked to that person. If you are lucky enough to work in a market that has a big current event going on, such as a weather event or sports team in a playoff situation, then you are getting your calls for the day.

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
