Would NOT recommend working at CBRE

Pros

Leadership was pleasant and easy to work with.

Cons

I can only speak from my experience on the marketing team but this was hands down the worst job I've ever had. I knew I made the wrong decision to join during my first few days in the office. No one could answer any of the simple questions I had about how our printers worked or where anything was stored. I was completely fooled during the interview process. The leaders of the marketing team promised multiple things that never came to fruition during the interview. The team structure was completely unorganized, the process of the workflow was repetitive/unnecessary, and worst of all my manager had no experience in the specialty she was managing. 10/10 would NOT recommend working here if you have any real interest in furthering your career in marketing.

Pros

You will be able to pay your bills and feed yourself.

Cons

The single least trust worthy company I have ever worked for. Absolutely zero career growth. The culture is toxic and unhealthy. I have never been a part of such a miserable group of people. Management does not care about your well-being.

Has a lot of potential.

Pros

PTO is generous. Bill Hayden is a great CEO. Lunch is provided regularly. Development classes available. Lots of opportunities to move up if you’re motivated.

Cons

Associate Buyers are just glorified call center reps. You’re expected to be on the phone for at least 3 hours per day. I agree with others on here that some people aren’t meant to be Managers and for whatever reason they’re kept around.
