Pros

Fast response when it comes to IT, payroll, or benefits questions. Efficient email communications systems in place, processes relatively streamlined, many resources to utilize.

Cons

No real "perks" to speak of. Generic corporate culture. If you're not a broker, be prepared to feel a bit isolated and dejected. Disrespectful to admin. Stubborn and condescending brokers. Inflexible time off (especially if you work under a broker). Be prepared to talk about money, golf, and sports and not much else. Lack of culture or human connection. People could care less about what you unless if you're bringing in the big bucks.

Pros

- Compared to other property consultants I have worked for, Colliers is way more professional in their approach and in their processes - Colleagues had a good balance of work hard/ play hard. Made going to work fun - Colliers had a dedicated Colliers University which regularly updated lessons on industry changes which was useful

Cons

- The office leasing department in the Singapore office only focuses on tenant representation (no landlord representation so as to avoid conflict of interest). This forces the brokers to constantly "hunt" for clients which can be extremely exhausting. Although Colliers has built up a strong tenant rep business model in Singapore, this approach is very different from the other major players, where their brokers represent landlords 50% of the time and customers another 50% of the time (i.e. other brokers have an easier time)
