Pros

My position specifically, and I would assume most in general, are great in terms of making connections. Sitting at the front of the office maintaining the in and outs of all who are in the office, gave me the opportunity to network with some great/important people!

Cons

Although I was treated with nothing but respect by most employees here, being an office coordinator on a floor full of people who had more respectable jobs, you sometimes get treated like a hostess. When people see you at the front desk, they consider you solely as a receptionist, not knowing most of what I did had to do with organizing events, meetings, and assisting in the flow of the entire office with my supervisor. Whether they were the people in the office, or coming into the office for a meeting, I had my share of experiences where people obviously feel as though they can take advantage of someone in an office coordinator position. One guest to our office had me carry her espresso all the way to the meeting room with her. Rubbed me wrong being that I am not a butler/maid.

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.
