Benefit of working for name brand brokerage for IS

Making a move into IS and was curious to any other IS brokers out there working for the big names (CBRE/JLL/Cushman, HFF, etc). What do you feel the company gives you (besides name recognition) that justifies them taking such an exorbitant amount of your commission? I understand getting started and how important the name can be to get you into any meeting, but if after you’ve been in the business for 10+ years and have a solid book of business, what would stop you from opening your own shop and taking home more fees? Is there something I’m missing?
