Pros

Many benefits from being at a large company. Tons of clients and ability to transfer internally. Hard work will get you promotions (just not money).

Cons

CBRE will do everything they can to not pay you well. I was told that I should be coming to work for reasons other than money and that I cared too much about salary. They kept hiring senior leadership, but the quality of senior leadership was horrible. Benefits weren't great. Severe problems with DE&I.

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.
