I enjoy Colliers, the people, management, the work, it's all really good. Unfortunately the compensation is low and there are few opportunities to move up. It's hard to tell whether this problem is a reflection of the company or the industry. The real money is on the broker side - so if you're ambitious and don't care about real estate, then you probably won't stay long.
Cons
Low pay, little growth.
All in all, Colliers is a great place to work. The people are awesome! But (as I've come to learn) most quickly realize that Colliers International is a just a stop on your career path, not the final destination.

-the people
-mostly easy-going
-not a hard job
-good actually entry level job
-people are almost always willing to teach you something you are not sure about
Cons
-Schedule rigidity
-almost no say in where or when you work (even though the company preaches this as one of its values)
-the pay (didn't get a raise for the first 2 years I worked there and they were small rasises. Then told I was not being promoted after waiting 3 years for the promotion I was promised)
-the favoraitism by management
-the work is either a 100% or nothing to do
-in office days tend to be highly stressful
