      Horrible local management, toxic work environment, and lack of effective leadership/direction - Anonymous employee RICS Employee Review

      Pros

      Exposure to high level professionals in the property profession, annual professional development course, and good benefits package.

      Cons

      The local office leadership is lacking in a way that is detrimental to the success of the organization. There's a lack of direction, death by meetings - which usually ends with no further action being taken, the Managing Director's ego is inflated and he has yet to deliver on annual membership acquisition goals, male-centric US office environment, blatant bias, and a lack of transparency. Management is secretive and shady. Outdated software and poor technical support.

      Pros

      Decent benefits. Flexible schedule - most employees are able to work from home 2-3 days a week. Health insurance premiums are 100% covered. New employees start off with three weeks of vacation.

      Cons

      Organization is poorly managed and is not fiscally stable. During my time there, they were always in the red. Senior managers are kept on even as junior staff leave or are laid off in droves. Decisions are often made on a whim with little consideration to how to successfully implement changes. Salaries are below industry averages, especially in the UK office. There are very few opportunities for advancement. Promotions are not often given based on talent and skill.
