Hi all, I am interviewing at Greystone for a position. Past threads on here seem overall negative regarding the culture/turnover at the company. Just wanted to get some more info if possible if it's really that bad or any info at all. Thanks.

Production side or UW? Personally, I’d avoid agency UW at any shop. Production side will be very hit or miss. There’s around 5 producers that bring in 90% or the deal flow while the rest struggle to find MM deals in tertiary markets. Have gotten quotes from a couple of producers in the past and they’re sharp but I’d avoid Greystone if you’re not under a top producer.
I wouldn’t necessarily avoid an UW position in agency. It’s a good skill set if you’re looking to go into production. Agency producers are some of the highest earners on the debt sales side of the biz. Extremely extremely competitive though.
why would you avoid agency - it seems lucrative in this market as a loan product for multifamily
It's on the equity side
I interviewed at Greystone and they seem to have separate originations and production positions. Found that strange.

can you please elaborate
Also Greystone does not have an equity side, you are being hoodwinked player.
Yes they do. They have a small equity capital raising team.

It’s very repetitive as the loan types are very structured by the GSEs, unlike a debt fund, for example, where more creativity is required to make the deal work. In other words, there are very little workarounds, if any, in agency lending. You can either lend or not lend to my understanding.
Placeat aut ex temporibus. Quasi eos est distinctio sit sunt aut quia. Maiores optio nesciunt natus cumque. Deserunt nesciunt voluptatibus nulla consequatur.
Sit natus sed et aliquam dolorem non. Quia voluptas ea nam minus qui similique facilis ut. Commodi impedit id est ratione et qui iste. Soluta dolore hic ut sint aspernatur eveniet fugiat.
