Transitioning from West to East Coast

How hard is it to make the move from the west coast to the east coast early in my career? I've been working at a top group (GS TMT/ MS TMT, Centerview) in the west coast for a few months and have enjoyed it for the most part. However, all of my friends and family are in the east coast (NYC). I want to move back to NYC.

Any helpful advise on the transition and do's and dont's would be greatly appreciated
