Jones Lang LaSalle Reviews

Pros

Is definitely a place where there are various roles on offer and a good company to gain some vital experience

Cons

Very underpaid when compared to market rates and excuses of overall package on offer wears thin after a number of years. Has moved on to become a bit of a corporate monster where it goes all out to destroy the opposition and takes no prisoners both inside & outside the firm. Started to get the feeling that you are just a number, not a person and loyalty counts for nothing.

JLL

Leadership should look closely at how brokers treat each other.

Advice to Senior Management

I would advice JLL to have their upper management act like management instead of chasing after their next promotion

Pros

Big and solidly established company, lesser chance to get laid of in times of financial hardship. Good atmosphere amongst colleagues, firnedly and nice. Employees are highly professional and managers treat people nicely.

Cons

Advice to Senior Management

increase salary. The company needs to increase salary. Prices are going up and salary increase is not enough to cover the risen prices.

Pros

My job training was exceptional. JLL trains the employees on the most current software available in the industry.

Cons

Employee training and compensation are too dependent on the Account Manager and Operations Manager that it creates a non-uniform salary and training structure among JLL employees and between different accounts being managed.

Advice to Senior Management

Standardize training and salary structure between accounts being managed.

Pros

Its very challenging and you can gain a lot of experience very quickly.

Cons

Aggressive culture and things move/change quickly. If you are not cut out for this type of culture, you won't make it at JLL. For some, this culture can be seen as corporate bullying.

Advice to Senior Management

They should try to acknowledge the hard work of the employees (managers and individuals). They make a ton of money off of emplpoyee's work and they should focus on recognizing the work.

Pros

There is always work to be done. You are never bored or looking for a new project.

Cons

Everyone is overworked and underpaid.

Pros

Cons

Work Life - lots of lip service given but no support - left to sort it out yourself when you reach out for assistance.
Can get stuck with bad client and have no way out but to quit.
Employee value - experience not a positive in the new higher AGM era

Advice to Senior Management

Realize happier employees = happier clients. Start rotating assignments to create more exposure to more employees for all project types.

Many growth opportunities
Well respected company

Cons

Large company so it can be hard to navigate if you don't stay well connected.

Advice to Senior Management

I think they have done a good job at growing the company
