Cushman & Wakefield

"Some areas of the company are very female-friendly. That said, the brokerage field in general still has work to do."

"Understand the team you will be working with and their expectations. There are many wonderful opportunities throughout the organization. "

"A lot of it depends on your teams and partner and I did not have any bad experiences about being a woman specifically or feel as though it was harder for me to succeed as a woman vs. a man. However, almost all the directors and partners in my office were male so it is harder to make networking connections in that regard. "

"The company has a great atmosphere and takes care of their employees. "

"Don't. It's an old boys club and racist. Lots and lots of white males with a few token women and minorities. There are quite a few white women but they are usually under 30 and hardly any get past a low manager position. "

"Be careful with this company. Work from home is fully supported, but the organization itself is completylu disorganized and the level of communication, job expectation and training is very poor. Lack of support can create a stressful, high anxiety culture, and no one wants to be under constant stress all the time. Also, the Business Development Team tends to be very backs tabby and full of gossip. If they don't like what color your blouse it, they will find a way to get rid of you. The organization doesn't support growth opportunities from within. Advancement is for their hired favorites."

"i think it would depend on what that do here.."

"C&W is very focused on enabling women to achieve success at all levels."

"Great company to work for! Cushman & Wakefield has many women in leadership that are empowered, trusted and mentor other women. The real estate sector is very male dominated in general, but not there! "

"The culture is very supportive, collaborative and client focused. Cushman is focused on advancement of women"

"Find a woman mentor and don’t be afraid to speak up. "

"Cushman & Wakefield is a growing company working to embrace and foster a more diverse and inclusive culture. We are a large company so some policies, though a push in the right direction, take time to develop. I am confident that current leadership is committed to creating a better work environment and increasing engagement for both men and women. That being said, depending on who is your supervisor can change the experience as woman employee and what department you are in. The Brokerage department isn't inclusive of women. There are still great lengths to go to empower women in a very corporate environment but overall Cushman & Wakefield has been a positive work environment. "

"Great employer, very understanding. Easy to have open conversations with concerning your work-life balance. "

"Commercial real estate, as a whole, is a male-dominated field. Difficult to get foot in door, but once you are established, there are lots of opportunities."

"It's important you align yourself with the right team. Everything is pretty much determined by the specific senior broker you work with or for. "

"For women on the brokerage side, there's definitely a lot of opportunity; for someone in a salaried position, there is definitely less room for growth. Overall, there's good people that work at the company, but management definitely has a ways to go before I would say it's creating an operational firm."

"Make sure to cultivate mentors in the company that can guide you through the heavy politics. "
