Pros

Great people, supportive management, highly influential name/reputation. True teamwork required on client accounts, changes are made if the need arises and are viewed with a strategic, long term view before enacting.

Cons

Too large in many respects yet still relies on tribal knowledge and politics to get things done. CBRE values/processes are trumped by client needs/wants, so cultural differences take a lot of time to untangle to get to the right solution.

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.
