Pros

//Actually// helpful colleagues across the board. Talent development in CBRE is designed for employees to take charge of their own career track. Has an ongoing Mentorship program for employees of certain qualifications, trained by experienced and high level, high performing mentors in the organization.

Cons

Minimum, basic benefits for starters. Salary may be below market for some - happens when talent is hired at low salary but advanced in the organization. While the manager will try to bring it up to market, it relies heavily on regional approval.

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.
