Q&A With Compass Employees

  • Top Employee Response

    It feels like the Trump cabinet! People join, they leave. The number of leaders in the company that decided to stick with it more than a year is surprisingly low- less than 10%. With high leadership churn also comes a lot of anxiety in the ranks for job security.

  • Too many changes for a company our size. Managers leave all the time, people get fired all the time.

  • Not secure. If you wish to transfer managers block, then burry you in a bad account.

Asked to all employees at Compass

  • This was my first job and I left quickly- over the time I worked in product and engineering, we heard constantly from leadership that we were doing a bad job since we could never meant the overly ambitious goals they set. The review itself felt like humiliation to me- the manager said it was for my own good. I was demoralized and left.

  • Not good at all.

  • Poor, lacking responsiveness to needs and queries.

  • Depends if you are on call or not.

  • If you are looking for a job where you can have work-life balance, Compass is not it.

  • Considerably as am expected to be "on call" 24/7 as a manager. Very disruptive to living

    Office vibe is sad. The majority of employees who are left joined after the SoftBank investment- that means that their upside to equity is very small compared to early stage joiners. For early joiners, the company is great. For those who are joining now, it is sad since you are working your ass off for little upside.

  • Poor. Negative energy and hateful people.

  • Compass culture is great and people are generally very friendly. Much more than other offices I’ve worked in.

  • They are okay. They care more about money than your personal being.

  • The company wants to do better, and they run quarterly NPS surveys. The manager ratings in many teams like product and engineering are so abysmal and they haven't figured out a way to fix it.

  • Company has not yet figured out how to invest in their employees. You'll most likely spend more time thinking about whether you'll have a job next week than think about growth and advancement.

  • Some days are good. But at it's core the company is a sales organization, selling a aspirational vision to real-estate professionals who are not tech savvy. In the engineering side, this means you always feel complicit in deceit.
