Pros

1) Competitive Benefits: Medical coverage and outpatient limits are in line with market standards for large firms. 2) Flexibility: Good support for work-life balance, including work-from-home options and flexible timing. 3) Office Culture: Professional environment with regular engagement events and training opportunities.

Cons

1) Accountability Gaps: Performance standards are not always applied consistently across seniority levels. Errors at certain levels often require others to intervene and rectify, without a clear focus on long-term solutions. 2) Variable Hiring Standards: Compensation and recruitment criteria seem to vary by department. This leads to a lack of uniformity in team expertise and internal pay equity.

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.
