Pros

I have worked for CBRE for 6 years. One of the good things I noticed about CBRE is its strive to become competitive in the Technology arena. I have met the CEO in person. His personality was motivating and uplifting.

Cons

One of the downsides to working for CBRE from my personal experience is as a Black woman I have had challenges when applying for Management positions. Me like some other Black women in the company - I can only speak for Digital and Technology Department quite often find ourselves having to file complaints through HR to be treated fairly. Although CBRE considers themselves to be a Diverse company, it seems to not be evenly dispersed when it comes to Blacks vs other minority races. Promotions are usually based on the buddy system.

Pros

Pay is commensurate with experience. Raises are flat 3%, which isn't great, but better than nothing. Benefits are decent and 401K good.

Cons

Micromanaged to death with targets to reach each month, daily huddles that only tell you what you are doing wrong, mandatory tracking and logging of all work completed - like every minute on the clock you have to account for what you are doing in the form of a work order or training etc. Its freakin ridiculous!!!
