Pros

Opportunity to work with some knowledgeable professionals.

Cons

- Low Salary: The compensation is significantly below industry standards, making it challenging to meet the cost of living. - Merit Increases: Any salary adjustments are negligible and do not keep pace with inflation or living costs. - Nepotism: There are numerous instances of favoritism where relatives and friends of higher-ups are given preferential treatment, often at the expense of more qualified employees. - Poor Treatment of Staff: Brokers frequently treat staff poorly, with little respect or acknowledgment of their contributions. - Management Issues: Management is often unresponsive to concerns and fails to take meaningful action to address issues, including poor treatment by brokers. - Discrimination and Favoritism: Instances of discrimination and favoritism are not uncommon, creating an unhealthy and demoralizing work environment. - Toxic Work Environment: The overall work atmosphere is severely toxic, marked by hostility, lack of support, and pervasive negativity.

DO NOT work for CBRE

Pros

I have a company vehicle, and the benefits are decent.

Cons

I am a Field Service Technician. My company was purchased by CBRE and everything went to garbage. Our “raises” are absolute trash now and we are nothing but numbers to CBRE. The only way I would suggest working for this company is if you are high ranking office personnel. This is a real estate management company, they had ZERO business purchasing a Bio Tech service company. They don’t have a single clue how our company operates and they definitely do not understand the pay scale. They treat their Field Techs like garbage. You are just a number to them. I went from loving my job to hating it within a month of CBRE purchasing my company.
