      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Has a very diversified client base. Is very proactive with continuous training and continuous education. Is very fair with market compensation Has a good "seperation" practise and related resources.

      Cons

      Company service standards comprimised by strong client means and methods. Offers little or no employment option or comprimise (i.e. PT or job-sharing) during market downturns.

      Unrealized potential

      Associate director
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The potential opportunities that you have and the connections which are developed withing the company can be excellent. Their network and certain staff can be leveraged to provide truly excellent services to the clients. In some markets the knowledge and services provided are absolutely top rate, which connections which go to the highest levels of business. The brand name will open doors for you, although this has been declining in recent years.

      Cons

      The lack of communication and cooperation between offices and business lines. The company seems to take pride in hiring below the industry average, and some of the middling management are reluctant to employ new staff which may be more talented then they are. Senior management seems a bit too divorced from the day to day workings; while this is to be expected, they should have more regular interaction which would help them to understand the depth of feelings which some of the business lines have towards the middle management.

      All good until Peoplesoft arrived

      Accounts assistant

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good job, people, location, pay, benefits. It used to be a fantastic place to work, until a systems change imposed by the US

      Cons

      Peoplesoft - imposed by CBRE USA on the rest of the world. An extremely hard to use system. The previous system was miles better! All done in the name of "globalisation" - absolute rubbish! Also, have certain accounts and IT functions spread across 3 countries is ridiculous!
