Pros

There are a handful of genuinely decent, hard-working people at this company, though I don't know why they stay on board when there are far better opportunities out there - for far better money. There is some room for career growth due to the fact that the turnover rate is extremely high.

Cons

There's a trickle down effect happening here - Brad Inman is demanding, impetuous, fickle and abusive, and the management reaps what he sows, passing it onto the staff. Directives were unclear, communication was a joke. Work/life balance is non-existent, despite the fact that they will tell you they are "flexible." Compensation was terrible, benefits were crap. Expect to constantly be working (yes, even in the evenings, even on weekends, even on holidays), expect Brad to scream at either you or your coworkers, expect upper management to be hypocritical and to constantly be passing the buck, expect clients to harass you. In general, you can expect to be miserable.

Pros

Employees at Inman are hardworking, professional, and very team-oriented. There is a culture of camaraderie to make the reader and event attendee experience the best that it can be. There is a lot of opportunity to bring creative ideas and suggestions into your role. Brainstorming and strategizing on how we can innovate and improve is always encouraged. Having the opportunity to work with the best and brightest in the real estate industry.

Cons

Workload can feel a little hectic in the weeks leading up to a big event, which is to be expected in any industry at any company. Leadership acknowledges this and gives employees a chance to recuperate which is appreciated. Remote work can be challenging at times. It's always good to see team members in-person at the events.

Pros

Flexibility with schedule, collaboration between writers and editors despite being remote, enjoy reporting on real estate industry

Cons

Don’t feel as connected to other teams at company, would like more opportunities to cover industry events in-person, and it would be nice to have an annual stipend that enables employees to get extra training/education for their role
