Pros

CBRE is only company which will you laptop (after 7 day of joining without charger, bag, mouse etc) then after a no of request they will give you charger, then to get mouse you have to again beg. At last you will think that you are no more a professional but became a beggar and you will purchase your own carry bag and second monitor HDMI cable. THE WORST EXPERIENCE I AM FACING IS WITH SO CALLED #WORLD's LARGEST REAL ESTATE CONSULTING COMPANY.# DONT JOIN IT.

Cons

If you want to park your car then you have to pay 3500 INR per month. (Again cheap rule from so called WORLD's LARGEST REAL ESTATE CONSULTING COMPANY)

Pros

-Big Organization -Good Work Environment - good office and work spaces with adequate infrastructure/facilities -Recession Proof - company doesn't have a culture of laying off people -Good Increments -No Cabins – All employees irrespective of their designation work alongside which is a big plus to any organisations. Improves in communication and makes management/other co-workers approachable

Cons

-Pathetic and third rate work culture (any anonymous survey among employees will reveal how much we all hate working in the company) -Zero work life balance -No respect for the personal space and time of an employee - the managers think they own the employees and treat them like slaves. There are instances when employees have been hounded on the hospital bed too!!! -The above statement equally applies to situations when you are on a holiday/vacation or attending to a sick family member - CBRE is just plain ruthless to the extent that you personal travel on weekends (yes!!) can also be restricted by management - permissions have to be taken for weekend travels as well!! -Youngsters with no maturity are promoted as GMs or Senior GMs only by virtue of spending more years in the company. Once they get to that stage their only job is to forward emails and ask others to finish the work ASAP – they literally do not move an inch from their seats but pretend to do all the work. -No logic in the promotion policy - positions and new hierarchies are randomly created only to accommodate people!!! -It’s cute how during team offsites it is completely acceptable for the whole team (including the bosses) to completely go offline and not reply to emails or even postpone deadlines (to clients). But if an employee does the same during a weekend or during a personal emergency for a single day all hell breaks loose. Total hypocrites! -Nothing new comes out of their reports- lot of copy paste from older reports with a change in formatting. Reports have more disclaimers than actual takeaways!!!!!! -The worst of all is the "its not my job" culture - anyone with 2+ years in the company starts refusing to do work that might involve any hard work/labour which is required for any project. They forget that any work is important and should be treated with respect. But unfortunately they start believing that they are now managers who will only review works done by others and will not touch any work beneath their "dignity" - all a result of bloated egos! -Totally unfriendly work culture
