Does anyone have experience with how Walker & Dunlop is? I get that they are a capital markets brokerage. However, I have been unable to get a sense of what compensation is like, work/life balance, and if working there can prepare you for bigger roles elsewhere ? Ex : Working there 2 years then moving onto Acquisitions/Asset Management at a bigger firm. Does W & D do big deals?($15M+) Just for background info, I value a firm that will provide a great learning experience for an analyst while also paying market rate compensation - nothing too crazy but just respectable.

Thank you !
Also interned there in undergrad. The reputation of the firm in the multifamily space is overwhelmingly positive. Just having their internship on my resume helped me to go straight to a REPE after school. Great firm and big hitters in the agency space. The Newport Beach groups are super solid for debt. I/S is growing but doing well too.
I’ll throw you a banana. I imagine you got MS bc the all caps made it seem like you were sarcastic haha
They recently acquired the old AKS/former NYC JLL squad. That team crushes, insane volume. WD seems to be trying to expand, especially in NYC and non agency. I have no experience with W&D besides these guys, which granted are new additions, but def big business, large deals and volume.
Want to say they acquired AKS 6-months ago, but already multiple 100m 500m+ deals. Big numbers now... but likely just the NYC team under these guys.
I don't know anything about working there, but the Walker Webcast with Willie Walker is worth listening to
Agreed
Bump. Also interested in this as well
