JLL vs CBRE capital markets

Speaking towards OC/LA markets, I was curious between the difference between JLL and CBRE with their d/e or DSF in terms of pros and cons between the two. I know its team or office dependent, but it seems that JLL runs a pool system with their analysts and CBRE with their institutional group is more team focused. Maybe some other offices within CB run the pool system, but this is what i’ve been informed. Would it be a very similar experience between both if the producers at each shop were doing similar transactions and at the same volume. I want to see what you guys think is the better move starting out or if it is more or less the same.

 

Benefits to both. At JLL you get to work with multiple producers which is nice, but downside is your workload is less predictable/usually means longer hours. CB you'll be working with one team on one product type/niche, so you'll get less exposure, but probably less hours/more predictable work load (not always though).

 

I'm from the area and know both offices from friends that have worked there and I've talked to head producers at each. At cbre, it's going to be a higher salary with less bonus. You're also just working for one team. jll is going to be lower salary with tips from deals closed and a bonus pool as well. jll is structured as an analyst pool. 

 

There are specific teams at both CBRE and JLL that are on par with those firms but like others have said, very team dependent.
