This place is what happens when mediocre leadership convinces itself it’s innovative. A shocking percentage of the workforce seems to be failed or former TQL brokers, which probably explains a lot about the culture.
The company loves to talk about partnerships and customer relationships, but much of the business model feels like finding creative ways to squeeze small business owners while dodging accountability whenever something goes wrong.
Middle managers consisted of power tripping former mall associates and grocery store supervisors who suddenly thought they were Fortune 500 executives. The amount of brown noising required to get ahead here would qualify as an Olympic event.
The favoritism was laughable. Cincinnati already has a reputation for caring way too much about where someone went to high school, and this company fully embraced the stereotype. Some people spent more time talking about their high school than their actual qualifications.
The funniest part is that talent saturation is real. Eventually they’ll run out of competent humans willing to entertain their practices and will have to start importing people with relocation packages just to keep the seats filled.
If a recruiter from this company reaches out, save yourself the time and hit delete. Wouldn’t be surprised if they get bought out by CBRE within the next few years.
