Pros

If you are new as an accountant, you definitely will get your hands dirty in learning almost everything there is to know about putting together a financial report. From journal entries to funding requests to specific clients, it will allow you to grow as much as you want, depending on how much effort you put in.

Cons

As you need to put effort into your work at CBRE, it is also critical to find out who that effort needs to be viewed by. Political hierarchy is very apparent on every team in the Bloomington office, so work wisely.

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.
