Wonderful Company Culture!
|
|
I have been working at KLNB since 2009 when my last Brokerage company went out of business after the Great Recession. This is my 15th year at KLNB, and there is no Real Estate Company I would rather be. What separates KLNB from almost any Commercial Real Estate Firm in the DC METRO area is the people & culture. It is un-matched. Very fun and inclusive environment to work in! From a Brokerage / agent perspective, there is no restrictions on the area of expertise you want to focus on, and your income is unlimited if you are willing to dedicate yourself to your profession. From a new broker / agent standpoint, KLNB will always make sure you are on the right team that will provide the right guidance and mentorship in order to succeed early in your career. New agents will never be left on an island to fend for themselves. There are always senior brokers willing and able to help advance your career! If you are thinking of a career in the commercial real estate business, I strongly encourage you to check us out!
|
Brokers work on 100% commission based salaries at KLNB (as is typical in our industry), but generally new agents are provided a salary / draw in their early years to get started. While working on 100% commission based income can be very rewarding, it can also be a big challenge to manage cash flow, especially in market downturns. However, that is not a KLNB issue, its more of a industry as a whole issue, as the commercial real estate business can be very cyclical, and it takes the right motived agents to be able to deal with the ups and downs.

Not worth it
|
|
- Health benefits
- End of year bonus
- Company outings/events
- Free concert tickets in the summer
- Occasional happy hours
- 3 weeks of PTO
|
This company advertises to have a fun work culture, but that could not be further from the truth. No real opportunities for growth, as titles are inflated for the sake of appearance and increased responsibilities do not come with an increase in salary. There is no HR presence or safe outlet for staff to confide in when dealing with unfair treatment, unrealistic workloads, and workplace bullying/conflict. This company fostered an environment that allowed overt favoritism, encouraged competition within teams, and did not have any boundaries set for unrealistic deadlines given by brokers and management. Length of time at the company is valued above strong work ethic. Although there were end of year reviews for staff, there was no opportunity to give feedback to managers, brokers, and leadership. There are some fun benefits, but it does not compensate for the bigger day-to-day issues.

The only way to retain staff is to care about their needs and take them seriously. Please consider that cost of living is much higher than the average annual raise given.

Amazing Internship Program
|
|
Was able to learn about other forms of real estate each week. This experience was extremely informational.
|
Sometimes there was not much work they had for me. For the most part, however, I had task for me to do.
