What’s A&M culture like? Up or out?

Can I just come in as a Manager and just stay in that role indefinitely? I’d be down just making $300k. Is remote possible?

Experienced Manager - 5 years in FDD and 2 years prior in audit

I’ve never heard of this happening. Plus it’s impossible for you to stay indefinitely because eventually the sun will exhaust its nuclear stores, swell into a red giant and incinerate most of the planets. The surviving outer planets will orbit a dim, dead white dwarf star and habitation would be even more difficult than it currently is.

Also no one is fully remote. Hope this all helps.

There aren't career managers, but there are directors/senior directors I know who have been with the firm for over 15 years. It's not MD or bust

At B4 you would be voluntold to operate at a more senior level if leadership know you are capable (without getting paid for it of course), and I’m not sure why that would not happen at A&M.

That would not bode well at all. Managers are often doing what directors are doing at the big 4 and working significantly to make close to $300k anyhow

Same thing at my firm at MM. The managers run the whole deal.

My partner and I are moving out of our condo building in NYC at month end, and the building management (not our landlord) has communicated to us that, on top of the 1K non-refundable fee and 1K security deposit to move out (stated in lease), they are also issuing a $1,250 "sanitization fee" for the public areas (hallways/elevators), since we happen to be moving out during COVID19. We feel this is taking advantage of tenants during this time and may not be legal. Any advice helps!
