Pros

40 hours per week in the office with five short breaks and barely any exposure to daylight, it felt exhausting. I even had to shorten my lunch if I arrived late or had an emergency. It often felt like I was just a robot. The only positive was that this strict routine mainly applied to new employees, not everyone.

Cons

I was hired as IT Business Application Support, but soon after starting, my role was changed to Systems Analyst without discussion. Very unprofessional.

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.
