John L. Scott Real Estate

This was the best job I've ever had. I excelled and thrived in my position and was supported and respected for my work and for who I am as a person. I planned on staying with the company for as long as humanly possible because I felt so fulfilled. I loved being able to approach my work with an entrepreneurial spirit, and it created some great opportunities that brought success in my role that benefitted the company. Unfortunately, corporate decided to downsize and seemingly made cuts without regard to who they were cutting and what kind of long term investment they were giving up. I get that times can be tough, and that creates hard choices, but I had some real plans to increase revenue and employee retention to help the company get through those tough times. I'm extremely sad to have lost my opportunity to continue making real impact for a company I loved working for so much.

Working for John L. Scott Real Estate in the Seattle/Bellevue area
was a pleasure for 26 years. The company was very well thought of in the industry and I was proud to be an Agent with JLS. for 26 years.

The Management was always supportive of the Agents and made sure we had all the up to date tools for the Agents and the Clients.
The Co-Workers were screened before being hired to make sure the office always had a great atmosphere.
I hope to return when we relocate back to the Seattle WA area.

The most enjoyable was helping Clients getting there current home sold, so they can move on and helping them find their dream home!

I came into work at 8am and left at 6pm 1 hour for lunch, I learned soo much at this job, it was my first career type job. I loved working with all the differnt people that made up the company. John L. Scott donates to Seattle Childrens Hospital and encourages employees and Agents to do the same. The hardest part of the job was letting real estate agents know when their transactions weren't going to close on time due to title on the house or the loan documents not getting in on time, or other similar problems. The office team that I worked in had great comradery, we all worked well as a team, it seemed like a family atmosphere.

I enjoyed my job but the other office assistant didn't like the fact that I corrected a survey letter that was being sent out.  I am a perfectionist so I was not going to sign my name to a letter that was not correct.  
Typical day was answering phones, setting up appointment for house viewing for the agents.  Assisting agents when needed.  I also did all the landscaping for the office and Cleaned the office at night 2 times a week
I enjoyed my job and I was very good at it.  Customers and agents really liked me.  That's why when the owner went on vacation I was shocked that her assistant told me to go home.  It was a total surprise to everyone.

Real estate has its ups and downs as far as market conditions.  
The manager at Poulsbo is an ethical, hardworking, supportive, terrific person.  I would highly recommend this job to any 'go getter' with big financial goals and a intrinsic work ethic.  It requires personal organization, teamwork, and follow through.  An attention to detail is helpful and a problem solving attitude is required. 
If you ruffle easily- no need to apply. The most difficult part of the job is keeping a consistent flow of work, and the most wonderful part is getting to help people find ways to use real estate to enhance their financial position.

This is a great company to work for! The leadership, vision, & sense of camaraderie is something that is lacking in a lot of corporations.

The Work Life Balance, State of the Art Technology, VISION, Sense of Purpose & Uncapped Earning Potential are really what makes this company irreplaceable.

The biggest challenge is that you are working for yourself so self-discipline, accountability and profitability is essential!

What is the best part of working at the company?
Great crew to work with. Fun and exciting projects to work on.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Some clients are a little difficult to work with, but overall not too bad.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Great! They do staff appreciation events annually and clients love the support from the marketing team (which I worked in).

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Work on multiple various projects, submit for approval and send to print or upload different items for the clients.

At the end of the day you are in sales that is commission based. 
Sales is your business. 
As much as all real estate companies want to promote that they are about relationships it is a sales career. If you cannot manage your sales pipeline your sales will dry up. 

The money you make fully depends on how accountable you can be to yourself and grind through your sales tasks day in and day out. This can be a blessing and a curse for some people. You have to enjoy calling and communicating with people.

I am an office admin for JLS and I absolutely adore my job. Everyone is very kind, compassionate, and helpful. I have been made to feel warm and welcomed since the day I started. I am paid very fairly for my work but you do not receive PTO, 401k, or any kind of health or dental insurance which is the one major con of the position. The hours are great and they are flexible working with your schedule also. Other than that I enjoy my work and my work environment. 

management is not truthful and very untrustworthy and they pay less than going rate for assistants and the asst does most of the work. The office is nice and the agents are great but the property management side is poorly ran. The broker is and office manager require way to much time out of town leaving all the work for the underpaid staff.
