Pros

This is the top real estate services firm in the world--you will learn a lot and from the best in the business--can never be taken away from you--will speak volumes to others.

Cons

CBRE is not the place for anyone who doesn't aspire to be on the brokerage side; however, moving into the brokerage side is extremely competitive. Compensation for positions is very low and no possibility of bonuses/financial incentives to slave yourself for brokerage. Found myself burned out very quickly with nothing to show for it, except to make someone else rich.

It's a Learning Experience

Pros

The benefits package is good. They have very good promotional opportunities if you are a male in your 20s or early 30s.

Cons

It's a very structured, high-stress environment where employees frequently don't feel respected or appreciated despite all the "feel good" activities which are frequently planned during employee busiest workload times.

It's who you know that matters

Pros

It is a stable company with decent benefits.

Cons

Who you know or are related to matters more than hard work or achievement. Little or no recognition for anyone else going above and beyond the job description.
