Pros

I like the fact that at anytime you have plenty of training tools available for you to stay abreast with the most current software that is out there. In my current position I have been given the tools to execute the duties of my job with the hounding of a manager or supervisor. My current manager is open-minded, understanding and very professional. She definitely takes care of the people on her team.

Cons

The process for a transfer takes longer than you would expect. I expect 2-3 weeks but it's been longer than that, but I guess for good reason.

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.
