Pros

The opportunity to learn and participate in various areas of the real estate industry along with tremendous learning opportunities. The company is the largest real estate services provider in the world with an extensive network of offices that will provide the oppuruntiy to relocate while staying within the company.

Cons

Not very flexible in terms of handling business or very direct and/or personal in their approach. It is the CB way or no way. Most of the learning opportunites are online and they are not supportive all the time in terms of personal growth and sharing of ideas/information. Depending on which service line you are involved with and whose group you fall under there may not be alot of chemistry and cohesiveness. I would not reccomend being middle management, rather upper management or an employee. Also the paperwork is insurmountable. There is literally a form for a form. Not to mention the ever changing procedures as well as guidelines that do not make for a consistently productive environment.

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.
