Best RE Firms to Start an Investing Career

With the many types of roles and firms throughout the real estate industry, I was hoping to gather a list of what this forum would perceive to be some of the best places to begin a career in real estate investing. This could be related to brand name, fundamentals learned, network gained, etc.

I'd imagine that, among others,

  • Blackstone
  • Starwood
  • Trammel Crow Company/Crow Holdings
  • Hines
  • Related
  • Tishman Speyer
  • JMB Realty
  • SL Green

Any others, and for particular reasons? Thanks!
