Morally Decrepit Cesspool - Recensione dipendente - Account Executive presso CoStar Group

Overall a good company, salary and benefits

Depends on the department, there are people who loves others don’t.

Here's the deal with working here if you're starting as an Associate Research Consultant. You will do 5 weeks of training 2 weeks in the classroom in which you will undergo two tests that you must pass to continue being employed. Then you will go to the "nest" for three weeks in which you're performance also determines if you will stay. Then you will go to your team where your performance also determines whether or not you'll stay. Everybody knows this is a metric based company and the truth is you can promote quickly if you're numbers are very good. The problem is that a combination of your market/team/managers/portfolio given once you reach the nest all determine how good your score can be. Also a lot of the metrics are pure luck. One of the metrics "CUF" basically means in your portfolio of brokers how many can you talk to on the phone for at least 90 seconds per month and this metric is worth 20% of your score which is odd considering it's luck if these old stuck up brokers pick up the phone or not. If you're smart you will find ways to "game" the system/metrics and rig your score to be higher. A lot of the tactics are hard to learn at first but with time if you're smart you can sneakily rig your score to be higher by frauding the system in certain ways. I was able to learn certain tactics even years ago in the nest that still work although some methods are only applicable depending on the market you are assigned to. If you're smart and sneaky and diligent you can find ways to cheat and make your life easier which I encourage everybody to do. This company is worthless and they do not stand by there employees at all. Only work here for money and benefits.

The pay and benefits is the only reason people stay at this job. Otherwise it is hell. Constantly being micromanaged and encouraged to do more regarding metrics that continue to become even less obtainable unless you cheat the system in some way which again I encourage although it is difficult and I think most people are not competent/diligent enough to do this consistently without eventually getting caught. The company now doesn't even want to build/accommodate enough parking spaces for employees. Overall it just gets worse and worse.
