Pros

I had great coworkers whom were invaluable to my career growth within the 6 months I was with the company.

Cons

The “People Services” aka HR are so rude and unhelpful. I only had one gentleman assigned to my account whom actually seemed to care and help me. My first 3 paychecks were messed up. First one was about a week late, second one was missing 40 hours, and the third one was non-existent, never paid. How does a Fortune 500 company allow that to happen? A few months after settling in, the senior senior director wanted to know my goals and when I told her to move up to a PM role, she happily explained that since I didn’t have a college degree I wouldn’t be qualified for any promotions for growth. That was my full stop with the company. I was still made to sit in on a yearly review with my supervisor in case I came back. No worries, I won’t. CBRE has proved to me they could care less about their employees.

Pros

They provide a wealth of learning materials to further your career.

Cons

My experience was that upper management does not understand what those in lower level positions do, and they don't take advantage of experience and knowledge of those below them to make strategic decisions.
