Pros

- Nice office building and equipment - Decent pay

Cons

Oh goodness...where do I begin? - Cliquey and political work environment - I cannot stress this enough! Working at CBRE is like being in a shark tank! - Does not care about work life balance (or you for that matter) - Most of the senior management is very disrespectful - Lack of Training - I was made to sit through a 2 week course that had practically nothing to do with my position and then was expected to know everything - Very hard to advance in career path - if they decide they don't like for any reason (health problems, mental disabilities, or anything really), you will never advance - Unrealistic work hours and expectations - Very micromanaging - there were some days I was actually afraid to go to work!

Pros

Global company, with many lines of business, exposure to senior executives and is an agile company. Leverages new technologies to improve performance and customer experience.

Cons

Compensation relative to workload was a bit misaligned. I would have preferred to see more project award bonus and emphasis on retaining non-executive employees
