Anyone have thoughts on remote/hybrid REPE/lending positions? I feel like this is probably the toughest industry to advance without being in the office.

I look at CRE job postings on LinkedIn daily. Almost all of the positions advertise on-site, maybe a fifth hybrid, and a few remote.

I would think that some of the on-site positions have some flexibility to work remote maybe 1-2 days week, but it doesn’t seem like institutional CRE bought into remote work as a sustainable model. We have way too many boomers/gen x legacy types running these firms that love the office. That said, it should improve over time, as more millennials run firms.

Plan on going to the office most of the time if you want advance in this industry. Maybe things are more flexible at smaller firms.

Any leads would be appreciated!

I went client side and am miserable - it’s madness on this side. Have made it 90 days and would prefer not to make it more than 120 - but we’re in a pandemic. Half of the problem is that I “onboarded” remote and the onboarding was TERRIBLE. The other thing is that there is no process and I’m on a team full of managers who have spent 15 years at this company and have no availability to talk to me with a day full of meetings. I’d prefer not to quit without a backup but I cry every day.
