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

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.
