CB Richard Ellis is the world class leader of commercial real estate and a great place to work.

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Strong senior leadership who are in tune with the economy and excellent communicators. There are great advantages to working with the best, brightest and by far the industry leader in commercial real estate. Brett White and Cal Frese are top knotch leaders who are responding well to the credit market crisis. There are tough decisions being made to protect the investors, employees and the leadership team has come across as "up-front" and "on-the-level" throughout the process.

Cons

The benefits are not as competetive as other major companies, especially in the fortune 500 arena. The healthcare benefits are expensive but have steadily improved over the last few years.

Pros

Big network. Great platform to learn and grow with.

Cons

sometimes in smaller offices, there isn't much room for "growth". No other open positions or title changes because the market just doesn't call for someone with that title.
