Pros

The benefits are great though maternity leave policy could be improved. Currently, you have to earn over 75K before they will cover maternity at 100%. Still, it is not as bad with other companies. For those earning less than 75K, you get 6 weeks at 70% under short term disability.

Cons

My only complaint is that my salary has been stagnant for years. I also found out that the pay cap for the same position on a different team is 68K. I make about 20K less than that after close to 10 years of experience. HR is aware but has not taken action and even went as far to state that this information is faulty despite that information was provided by a reliable source.

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.
