Vantaggi
Ascension's mantra of 'culture first' really sets the agency apart from others. As an agent, I experience a team approach and cohesive environment where the production and support staff work in tandem to the mutual success of all. The firm has consistently met objectives both from a sales and financial perspective. The momentum Ascension is experiencing has long-term implications and will continue to position its agents and staff nicely for years to come. Some other Pro's are: 1) Transparency of management, 2) Flexibility and creativity, 3) Investment in resources, 4) Boutique size and 5) Niche expertise.
Svantaggi
I don't have any current cons... the company has been through a lot since it's founding, but Ascension is at the height of its game in 2016; and the trajectory is up and up! The cons of OTHER 'ABC house' agencies (not naming names) seem to be all the same: rigidity, no culture, everyone's a #, no appreciation and ivory tower management. Not so at Ascension - I think we're a breath of fresh air amongst the stuffy 'suits' our industry has been so accustomed to for many years.
