Backup to EQR career

Seeing the asset management & EQR industry shrink from all directions has made me reconsider if I want to invest more time in the industry (5 years and counting in EQR). I am exploring other options including corporate finance, banking, perhaps even VC.

I was wondering if other people in the industry are looking at alternative options, especially those who have put in even more time and effort into this industry than I have?
