CBRE Labor Analytics Group
Anyone heard of or had any experience with this group? Recently got an opportunity with CBRE, on learning of my analytics background, they mentioned they had an opportunity open for a date scientist within this team.

Supposedly they do location analysis for Fortune 500 companies, it sounds like an interesting opportunity, but I don't know much about it. Have an informational interview coming up, just trying to see if I can get some insight beforehand
[{"id": "dn2bptc", "text": "I work for CBRE and we have used the Labor Analytics group twice in the last month for pitches. We are huge fans of their work and it has blown our clients away. They are incredibly helpful and have even gotten on calls with our team and the client to walk through the package they've put together. I can only comment as someone who has worked with them, but they are fantastic. ", "replies": [{"id": "dn2c41s", "text": "Thank you for your insights, as I say the role looks fascinating, I just don't know if career/income wise it would more rewarding/lucrative than Brokerage, food for thought", "replies": [{"id": "dn3aca1", "text": "You can't possibly make this kind of determination. As someone with experience with CBRE, I can tell you that all of their roles outside of legal, human resources, bread and butter departments, everything is very entrepreneurial. You will become the master of your own role if you're smart and create the opportunity for yourself to have a successful career. \n\nThat being said, no one can predict the future so economic trends won't help you figure out which oath to take, but if you do something you love, the money will come. Get into the mindset that you will make it no matter what. You could love picking up dog shit and still figure out a way to make millions with the right attitude. \n\nOne last tip for you. If you do go into this interview. Don't mention brokerage. Many people try to enter CBRE brokerage by first working in another department. It creates a ton of problems and you wouldn't be the first. I think the company generally wants to move away from it happening at all so just keep that in mind and good luck!", "replies": [{"id": "dn3hfjn", "text": "Thank you for you insight! I hear what you're saying about making money whatever you do. I should of also been more clear, I've been offered a position as an associate on a Brokerage team at CBRE (investment sales/institutional properties), but the Labor Analytics Group are trying to sway me over before I start in a couple weeks, so trying to decide between the two!", "replies": [{"id": "dn87p4x", "text": "out of curiosity how does compensation work there?  (in the labor analytics group).
