Pros

- If you are fortunate enough to be paired with someone who will teach you things, then you will be successful otherwise you will not move forward because the Head of each department will not acknowledge it

Cons

- Bad benefits - Payroll is extremely unorganized and combative. Payroll is a huge portion of a company and there were far too many mistakes for their level of a company. Common mistakes include Maintenance Engineers not being paid for their overtime and vacation, Payroll not being organized with vacation hours and then tell employees they have to prove their time after being with the company for 7+ years, etc. When errors are brought to their attention, they become threatening and combative and extremely unprofessional. Again, extremely unprofessional for a company of this stature. - Outdated systems and software. Other commercial management companies are able to produce advanced documents for their clients and Colliers uses outdated equipment and software which is an extreme disadvantage to the employees - All around, the Boston office has significantly decreased in client retention within the Real Estate Management department and no new business is brought in. Lay offs are made and the person in charge of new business should be rotated out for poor performance

Pros

-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
