A typical day consisted of working company-provided leads in a high-pressure office environment where agents were expected to be constantly available and responsive. While the brokerage promotes coaching, support, and agent development, my experience was that expectations were often unclear and standards were applied inconsistently.

The office setup made it difficult to have professional conversations with clients because multiple agents were making calls in the same open space. There was significant pressure to be in the office daily and remain engaged with leads at all times. Agents who requested lead pauses or attempted to establish work-life boundaries often felt penalized. Leads often cleared from your system and pond access removed. 

One of the most frustrating aspects of the brokerage was the lack of clear guidance from management and coaching staff. It was common to ask a question and be told to speak with a different coach or manager. After approaching the second person, they would often direct you back to the original coach. This created a cycle where questions went unanswered, responsibilities seemed unclear, and agents were left without the support they were told would be available. In some situations, it felt as though you were criticized for seeking answers from the person you had been directed to in the first place.

Management frequently discussed teamwork, culture, and support, but my experience was that communication often lacked transparency. There appeared to be favoritism regarding opportunities, lead distribution, and management attention. Agents were encouraged to follow policies and procedures, yet enforcement often seemed inconsistent depending on the individual involved.

Turnover appeared to be high during my time with the brokerage, with multiple agents leaving, being terminated, or actively looking for opportunities elsewhere. Before joining, I would encourage agents to carefully review the commission structure, lead ownership policies, client ownership policies, office attendance requirements, and expectations regarding availability. My overall experience was that the reality of working there did not match the culture and support that was presented during recruitment.

A typical day at work for an independent contractor hanging their license here means they expect a licensee to be in the office minimum 2hrs per day (max 9hrs/day) @ 7 days a week, including holidays and weekends. This is an Inbound micro-managed call center with high expectations to convert cold leads to production where the company sees more commission than the agent doing the leg work. If at anytime you miss a metric they will remove you from their lead flow, which is never discussed in their on boarding process and literally leaves the agent crippled because they demand all of your time and you have no time to work for friends or family. Additionally, it takes about 8 weeks to get thru their way of training and an agent has a start up fee to pay plus another month or two before a first commission check (if the agent is experienced, if your new to real estate good luck)- so hopefully and agent can sustain living with personal reserves as you are 100% commission. Not to mention wear and tear on your personal vehicle, with zero work life balance. Theres high turnover and an intense corporate culture where the agent burnout is frequent. I would not recommend this firm to anyone looking to get into real estate. At my college fair is where they found me, so they try to recruit younger agents who don’t know that there’s better real estate company's that can teach an agent how to survive on their own. Dont believe what they sell you, its not reality!

I have been with this team for over 3 years and watching agents grow and succeed is absolutely amazing. Lives are changing here. I put a stress level of 2 because well let’s be honest if it was always smooth sailing I wouldn’t be growing the way I am. This place challenges you and you have a voice, if you share that voice, ask for what you need and not keep it all inside or try and stir the pot without taking accountability for their own actions. I am not typically a review person because most come to review to vent. I feel if you’re a hard worker (and not because you say it on an application or in an interview), don’t like drama and have a vision for your life that is greater than where you are currently at, this place is amazing. 

As a top-performing agent at DJ and Lindsey Real Estate, I can attest that innovation is our cornerstone. The firm’s cutting-edge technology, including a powerful proprietary CRM, has streamlined my operations and boosted productivity. Our in-house marketing team provides invaluable support, allowing me to focus on closing deals. The company’s emphasis on work-life balance and collaborative culture has been crucial to my success. Regular team meetings and mentorship programs have sharpened my skills, helping me maintain a leading position in North Florida’s competitive market. For agents seeking a dynamic, supportive environment to thrive, DJ and Lindsey is the ideal choice.

This position at DJ and Lindsey offered me the incomparable opportunity to start a career in real estate with all of the best tools, coaching, and opportunity that you could possibly ask for, without the risk of stalling out financially in the first few months while trying to close my first few deals. I was provided with everything I needed, and a seemingly endless supply of opportunities and experiences to make myself into a professional within a relatively short time. Would highly recommend this position to anyone looking for a pathway to success in real estate!

When I worked there, I loved how the day went by quickly with lots of worthwhile tasks. I felt that I was improving the company and culture, and that I was paid fairly for my contributions. I only left because of my spouse being relocated. At the time, employees would come and go, but for the most part, the ones who left were people with lots of personal issues or liked to create problems at work, rather than solve things. I did however like that leadership would quickly weed out people who made the day more difficult or who liked to distract people from their work. 

Since coming onboard DJTL in the last year, I have advanced my career twice.  I have asked and been given task that were out of my realm and  have succeed at them due to the support I get from DJ and Lindsey, as well as the other Directors and Mentors.  They are always a pleasure to work with and my co-workers alike.  They understand when life comes up, allowing for a work life balance.  I would not ask for a better place or two better people to call my mentors.  Its not work if you enjoy what you are doing each day.  

This place is like the "Daycare" you take a nice tour of and everything seems perfect. Once you are done with "onboarding" They advertise "flexibility " but expect you to be in office like a full-time job. They demand you call this list of people that literally has record of hundreds of attempts, rather it's "do not call" not interested . This place only allows for the "favorite" to walk around doing nothing while listing the "bigger priced homes" this place is the worst RE company I have worked for. 

I have really enjoyed working here. I feel supported and appreciated everyday. The main goal is to help everyone win in every aspect of life. Being herd collaborating trying to be the best of the best and open to new ideas on how to get there. Having a great attitude towards everyone in the company whether your admin or leader all treated with the same amount of respect and care. 

Ever feel like you have too much self-esteem? Ever think "hmm, I'm too happy with my life"? Do you like to be shat on by managers? Do you crave an environment of confusion and chaos? Do you idolize psychopaths and tyrants, and gag at ethics and respect? Well, you are not gonna believe this! Look no further! Your cesspool of an oasis is here! Come on by and make a couple dollars before you get shoved out of the light-speed revolving door!
