Evaluate Your Experience: Reflect on the deals you've worked on and the skills you've developed. Identify areas where you excel and areas where you might need further development.
Networking: Leverage your network within the industry. Attend industry events, connect with alumni, and reach out to mentors for advice and potential opportunities.
Further Education and Certifications: Consider additional certifications or courses that could enhance your expertise and marketability, such as the CFA or specialized financial modeling courses.
Explore Lateral Moves: Look into opportunities at other PE firms or related fields like hedge funds, investment banking, or corporate finance. This can provide new challenges and growth opportunities.

Why do you feel that there need to be next steps? Also, why do you feel that what a stranger on the internet says about the company should play a part in your decision making?
Career growth and levelling up are always important, and it's always beneficial to hear other perspectives regardless of if they're strangers
Yes Nuveen is a known quantity and viewed as a good place from the CRE community. Hope this helps.
Nuveen is solid. Some people stay, some people go. Wherever you end up will be dependent on how good of a professional you are and potentially where you went to school. Worked there for a bit. Compensation in NYC is awful though
How awful is awful comp wise? Does it get any better at senior levels? Currently interviewing for something there so any color you can offer would be helpful
Stayed there AN - ASSO. Was 100-150k all in between those years. Not bad for Chicago or Charlotte where they have offices, but not good in NYC. WLB was great though
What does awful look like?
Bro…
As someone who’s interacted with them from a LP perspective, they seem grossly incompetent
I hate them, but that’s cause I constantly lose deals to you. Great company for sure, TIAA even better parent org. I would stay
I don’t think they’re strong property level investors but if you want to be at a big shop, execute on transactions, and make good $/hour it’s a good spot.
Any thoughts on if their debt arm is stronger than their equity arm?
