Ares REPE

See some job postings for an associate position in their Dallas and Atlanta offices. How are the regional offices compared to LA and NY? Any insight into either would be greatly appreciated.

Unfortunately not. They did a huge wave of recruiting probably 2 or 3 years ago when they planted the flag and moved all the RE people there. But its Ares - they're huge, you're going to get paid pretty well, you're going to work a lot of hours (but probably not as much as the LA / NY offices). They have a ton of capital they need to deploy so you will be busy. If I had the opportunity with 2-4 years of experience I would go for it. 

Edit: If you want specifics on living in Atlanta and its culture DM me. I'm assuming you're not from there.
