Pros

The company provides a lot of opportunities to help advance your career through training including providing time during work hours. Often its paid (reimbursed) or free through their association memberships.

Cons

Management is in general 'out to lunch' - Too many bureaucratic 'red tape' CYA requirements. It makes doing your daily tasks more work than it should be - no added value to anyone. These changes happen continuosly throughout the year and always negatively impact the workload of their employees. Staffing standards never appear to take these added steps into account thus making a managable job less and less as time goes on.

Pros

The company's reputation as being the largest full-service real estate company in the world. Opportunities to meet some of the industry's brightest talents.

Cons

Salaries are frozen, management is archaic, sales professionals are unprofessional, management rarely supports staff when tension arises between sales professionals and their supporting staff, there is a lack of respect for support staff and there is an unspoken caste system within the company. CB Richard Ellis only cares about making record profits at the expense of its employees while the upper management receives bonuses even in this economy!
