      Pros

      Decent pay for the work.

      Cons

      Not a real maintenance job. Your job will entail carrying out BS tasks for Amazon operations that are either completely ridiculous, or something that they can complete themselves, but would rather put it on maintenance... like cleaning their grill for a 4th of July cookout (yes, that really happened). CBRE management has no backbone and lets Amazon walk all over us with these mindless tasks by saying “yes” to EVERYTHING. The job consists of probably less than 10% real maintenance that entails repairing equipment, less that 1% actually troubleshooting and solving problems, and the rest consists of, moving desks, cleaning grills, cutting legs on tables because they’re too tall?, and attempting to baby-proof the facility because Amazon will not hold their own employees accountable for behavioral issues. This is where careers come to die. Also, on top of all that... the health insurance is extremely expensive and absolutely terrible.

      Pros

      Honestly? Not much. The vision insurance was decent, I guess. Truthfully though, there wasn't much.

      Cons

      Management's refusal to allow employees freedom. I routinely got praise from the client and hit the maximum score on my goals. If things weren't done "by the book", they were wrong. The health insurance was awful. Going to self-employment, one of the things that you hear is that you're going to pay a lot for health insurance. However, I'm actually paying LESS than when I worked for CBRE. When you work for CBRE, don't consider job security something that you're going to have. I saw two employees with 15+ years for the company get laid off, with zero severance and no option to transfer elsewhere, unless they wanted to uproot their families and move states for more work and a pay cut. This is the worst company that I've ever had the displeasure to work for. If you have literally any other option of employment, please consider doing that.
