Research Photographer - Anonymous employee CoStar Group Employee Review

Managers have a bully mentality. Constant surveillance for research photographers. Cameras in cars. Phone calls are listened to by all upper management. Managers are scared to have "private conversations" because they know they're tapped. Driving long distances. Harassment from the public. Asked to enter office buildings and record tenants. Asked to trespass on private properties to take pictures of property. Not paid for first half hour and last half hour of your day, meaning 9 hour days in which only 8 are paid. There is also a mandatory thirty minute break. You must be in your car every minute of the day. Work on a computer editing you work in the car. If you can not find a building to photograph and work on you must be constantly driving.
