CBRE good company but research the portfolio / properties ownership.

Chief engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

CBRE company has been a good company to work for, they are worldwide and with that can offer opportunities.

Cons

The ownership of the portfolio can have drastic impact on the experience. 2 years in a row of pay raise freeze for everyone on the portfolio cause compensation issues and ability to attract quality staff, and lack of funds to maintain buildings that cause frustration from equipment failures and tenant relations. Property management staff are rewarded while Engineering staff many times become the stooge; No seat at the table and left out in the cold as a second thought.
