Ethical Profile

Mixed.

Marcus & Millichap Inc. (MMI.US) presents a mixed ethical profile, with particular scrutiny on its worker treatment. Reports suggest employee concerns regarding pay and benefits, with reviews on platforms like Indeed and Glassdoor averaging around 3 out of 5 stars. Comparably.com data indicates that MMI's compensation and perks/benefits rank in the bottom 5% compared to similar-sized companies. While the CEO pay ratio stands at 51:1 against a median employee pay of $90,000 in 2024, critics point to the overall negative sentiment around compensation. The company states commitments to reducing environmental impact and promoting sustainable practices, but quantitative data on emissions or waste diversion is limited. For other ethical areas, including fair money, ethical sourcing, and community respect, there is currently insufficient public information to provide a comprehensive assessment.
