Pros

Good people and casual environment

Cons

This company is ran like a cult and Rogers is the ring leader. He’s bipolar and needs help. He will persuade you to join his company to make his ego feel better. His success was built off luck and connections. He has no clue how to operate a business and it’s unethical and unfair. All of the reviews on here are fake or he asked the staff to write them and they do it because they’re afraid of losing their job like many others. He brainwashes his team to believe in him and he gives all these motivational speeches like he’s running a church. He has zero real estate, relocation or property management expertise. He’s never even worked for a real business. Just look at his staff’s job titles… there’s no level of hierarchy and he tries to be original, but that just confuses people on what their role really is. He gives out manager or director titles easily because everyone reports to Rogers, so you really have no authority to make decisions or lead your department because no one reports to you. He was born into the Highland Park lifestyle and went to SMU and then became a real estate agent (SMU education… you’d think you’d do more than become a realtor) so he has no clue how a business operates. There’s no HR or handbook to set the standards, it’s how Rogers feels that day so you will walk on eggshells during your entire employment. He doesn’t give a damn about his staff, agents or clients. He will screw you over and give you a run for your money. Do not believe any of the positive reviews on here and do yourself a favor and stay far away from this man and his “company”.

Pros

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.

Cons

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.
