      What is paid time off like at CBRE?

      CBRE reviews

      Good experience, low pay

      Portfolio analyst
      Current employee
      Houston, TX
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great training, helpful coworkers, good culture, hybrid work schedule, 3 weeks PTO Year 1, 4 weeks PTO Year 2, 1,5x hourly overtime pay.

      Cons

      Pay is low relative to competitors and similar jobs and overtime is needed to bridge the pay gap. Upward mobility is slow, and not always based on performance.

      Laid off 6-mo pregnant : A hint of racism, a sprinkle of sexism, and a an overall feel of exclusivity

      Senior business analyst
      Former employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      They give 4 weeks of PTO which is great, Their benefits are great mostly but based on your level of pay, they have locations all over the world which is great for those that like to be nomads or interacts across timezones.

      Cons

      In short, I was hired in summer of 2022 on an experimental team to help the A&T area grab more clients are commercial real estate has become a dumpster fire due to the pandemic. I was hired along with a white woman and an asian guy who was the "manager" of the team. As time carried on, I could tell both of these individuals lied on their resume or had very poor work ethic. They were both non-caring and pretty lax and sloppy about processes and results. I Ama. reputation person and so this bothered me deeply. I was the only person on the team who had a M.S. degree, and I'm a black woman so of course I had to have more education to qualify where they did not. Either way, we worked, our work direction changed often as we were attempting to connect with various teams to meet their needs. These teams were not very welcoming and we had to convince them often of our team's worth. They were very condescending especially many of the white women I interacted with. Anyway, our director got very quite for about 3 months and did not set up any update meetings. In Jan 2024, he added a random meeting on our calendars and we were terminated, but not the white lady on our team. So me, black women who is 6 months pregnant, and Asian man were let go as our team was dissolved. They seemed to be able to find a place for the white lady, who is my opinion was the not competent at all to do the level of work that was needed for great outcomes. So, we are provided a half-trash severance package and loss of insurance in the middle of a pregnancy with no space to plan. Oh and they pay well-below market!

      Pros

      - Among the big 4 CRE firms, its capabilities and network are the strongest, which makes your job easier - Depending on the role, there is flexibility as the company has not devolved into RTO mandates. This reflects that there is still some empathy as long as you get work done, as even if your role is 5 days, leadership generally allows you flexibility for emergencies etc, unlike most other companies that have gone backward and probably insist you eat your PTO. - Most people are very collaborative and cooperative.

      Cons

      - Small instances of usual office politics

      Pros

      Benefits are great and after you reach a certain level of pay, you have unlimited PTO. Parental benefits are competitive.

      Cons

      Who advances and who gets raises isn’t always the most talented. No company culture.

      Over-Worked & Under Appreciated

      Marketing & event specialist
      Current employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great pay, benefits and PTO time (if you have the time to use it), tons of employee resources. Room to grow (if your manager/boss allows you).

      Cons

      Little to no onboarding training for the actual position itself. Upper-level management has no idea what is going on with their onsite property management teams, nor do they put in the effort to actually care. Expect managers to email you on weekends as they don't understand the concept of work-life balance. Most people burn out within the first year or two. If you're good at your job, and your team likes you, don't expect to be promoted.
