      Pros

      Corporate environment for those geared to that. Well structured for the corporate atmosphere with no need to re-invent the wheel. Benefits are good with generous time off with pay for more senior managers - when you can take off that is.

      Cons

      No opportunity to use entrepreneurial skills, think for yourself, initiative is not rewarded. An excessive amount of administrative paperwork can be a burden. CBRE is a Los Angeles based company trying to force the Manhattan market into a west coast mold with a limited degree of success. Managers will feed you to clients to avoid any difficulties in retaining accounts leading to poor employee morale.

      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.
