Major Changes Needed - Anonymous employee CCIM Institute Employee Review

The overall direction and values of the organization need a lot of help. In response to the pandemic, there were some layoffs and a mass-exodus of key staff players. Any remaining staff have felt the consequences. Staff that are vital to organization's success have gone underpaid and unappreciated and felt the pain of being understaffed following the pandemic. Senior staff have a lot of issues amongst each other, with lots of gossip and distrust. That level of toxicity trickles down to all staff and there's an overall level of uneasiness in the company. Following the layoffs and loss of some senior staff members, the volunteer leaders completely overstepped their roles and have started to mislead the organization into a dangerous direction. Instead of seeking guidance of qualified professionals to help get the company back on track, they (as commercial real estate professionals) have decided to do it themselves. I think there is room for the organization to turn itself around, but that will involve major changes to the involvement of volunteer leaders and the removal of some bad-players on staff.
