GT is of course a great real estate firm. You would have lots of options for work in and out of the office.

For the most part their clients tend to be sponsors and developers, as opposed to capital partners. Also, lots of the biggest deals in the US use GT associates to do due diligence.

But, the firm works best for a small set of shareholders and everyone else is beholden to them. Usually, people there have a hard time leaving due to their pedigree or experience.

Many of the most important people in that firm are RE partners and at least one is in LA. So that’s good. But so many people have left there because it just didn’t work for them.

For many people that firm, when compared to any other is: same hours, same jerks, less pay.

Great stepping stone in real estate, and great place for people who cannot otherwise be in true big law.

Any Atomic Habit readers here? I’m brainstorming identity-based habits for two things I want to change:

Neither of these feel that helpful. Any one have suggestions for other identity-based goals that get at these changes I want to make?

General corporate in NY looking to lateral into tech transactions at one of the EC/VC firms. I’ve heard that I may get a class cut if I make the move but I’m ok with that. My worry is that EC/VC firms are crazy busy work differently from general corp, I also won’t have control over my hours, and potentially worse based on how billing differs (block billing on a few clients vs having to work with 15 or more startups). Is the same true for tech trans or IP group?
