CBRE Development & Infrastructure (formerly Thelem Consulting) - Consultant CBRE Employee Review

My time there was pretty disappointing. A few of us were let go without any warning or explanation, and it had nothing to do with performance. The culture here was all about optics. If you fit their “preferred” mold (private school, white) you were more likely to be promoted. Meanwhile, most of the people let go with me were from Asian backgrounds, which felt like more than just a coincidence. After talking to former employees, it seems like this wasn’t a one-off thing—others had noticed the same patterns. CBRE might have a big name, but if you’re not in their inner circle, don’t expect much in terms of fairness or career growth.
