Capital Formation/ IR Firms

Hi everyone,

I’m looking to break into the Private Real Estate/ PE world & interviewing for some IR/ Capital Formation roles. Have a background in an adjacent industry performing an almost identical function and am curious about the internal environments of some of the larger firms- think Blackstone, Brookfield, Starwood, KKR, etc.

Have any of you had experience working at the above or similar firms? Would love to know what it’s been like for you:
- culture
- ramp up timeline
- upward mobility opportunities
- which teams get the most visibility
- most active asset classes
- anything helpful you can shed light on that I can’t find online
