too much focus on upper management, not enough focus on team work and assisting middle management

Assistant real estate manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great potential to grow with the company, and learn new skills. PTO and holidays are comparable to most companies. Benefits are decent.

Cons

Upper management is focused on doing as little work as possible, while leaving middle management to fend for themselves. If you ask for assistance with something, rarely is it actually given. Upper management is so worried about their own backs that they link up together and basically make it impossible to ever get a resolution on issues you're having with them. Instead, they look at middle management as "disposable" and the place is basically a revolving door. It's true, what they say, the higher you get the less work you do.

Pros

Extremely flexible work environment that is geared towards results and not necessarily punching the clock. Creativity and forward thinking is rewarded.

Cons

Technology is an issue and has been over the last 10 years. For a global leader CBRE is well behind the curve in providing a technology package for their employees that can be utilized in servicing the clients.
