Pros

Good people, lots of opportunity to move up, great HR, love that CBRE likes to promote within rather than hire outside people most of the time

Cons

Work life balance is hard to come by, a lot of your experience varies GREATLY depending on whether you work directly or on an account

Pros

Real estate is a wonderful industry in which you see everything is real. You see properties and deal with clients who are large real estate developers.

Cons

Real estate industry depends a lot on market sentiment, therefore when the market goes down, the real estate services company will suffer a lot from losses of major deals.

Pros

They have pretty good benefits & try to be as green a company as possible. Great place to start as a college graduate; rotation program in place. They have a way to report wrongdoings (whistleblowing) without any repercussions.

Cons

Casual Friday means no jeans; you're allowed to wear jeans maybe 2-3 times a year. Image, image, image; very image conscious. Very male-dominated culture.
