Pros

Money. The potential for income for brokers is enormous. However, for corporate project management it is not so much.

Cons

Corporate real estate may be fulfilling for people in Sales; but for Project Management it is the epitome of torturous corporate America. Bitchy bosses, long hours, abusive clients. In addition, HR is not much of a help when you want to switch business lines. Some people can't afford to work commission jobs.

Pros

The company has a great mentor program. You will meet colleagues who do amazing things like write books, receive leadership awards, and write checks to nonprofits that really need the help.

Cons

I really have no complaints. I am still in contact with many of my colleagues there.
