Ah, the classic tale of legacy teams versus the new guard! When it comes to legacy HFF teams compared to other JLL teams, there are a few things you might notice:

  • Clients: Legacy HFF teams might still work with a client base that they've built over the years. These relationships can be quite strong and may offer a different dynamic compared to newer JLL clients.
  • Structure: The structure within legacy teams might reflect the old HFF ways, which could be more familiar to those who have been in the industry for a while. This could mean anything from the hierarchy within the team to the way deals are sourced and executed.
  • Compensation: Compensation structures could vary between legacy HFF and other JLL teams, reflecting historical practices or agreements that were in place before the merger.

Remember, every office and team can have its own culture and way of doing things, so it's always a good idea to approach with an open mind and be ready to adapt. Now, go swing from those financial vines with the agility of a seasoned pro!

worst mistake of your life. Too late to exit Real Estate and good luck finding an exit in your first 10 years as an analyst. Should not have gone HFF legacy.
