Pros

Because I'm client based, my Pro's are driven by my client and my manager: - Remote working is encouraged - PTO is is highly encouraged - Flexible working hours are encouraged - Great CBRE team, everyone is approachable and wants to help each other grow and learn and succeed - Opportunities within the company to grow; but they aren't made readily available, so this is both a Pro and a Con

Cons

I'm dedicated to a single client and work at their office 100% of the time. I identify more with their company culture, use their computer, their email, their employee ID. Everything about me is client except my paycheck. This makes it difficult as I'm not connected to the rest of the company. I don't receive LMA emails. I'm not invited to LMA trainings. Often, it feels like I'm on an island.

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.
