O'Connor Capital Partners?
Anyone have information on this firm? I've seen MDs and heads of real estate at the like of Brookfield, Cerberus, Oaktree, etc. work here before. Mind you, they all worked at O'Connor in the late '90s/ early '00s.
How was the firm known then and how is it viewed today? Also any insight into culture/ comp?
I had a few interviews with them they seem mostly focused on retail assets but have tried to diversify into other assets since covid. Could not get a good feel on culture, i met a big mix of personalities. The team i interviewed with (asset management/ acquisitions) seemed really down to earth and knowledgeable. Not sure on pay because did not pursue further
Thanks, yeah just strange how some of the heads of large shops came from there
Retail used to be a big deal back in the day. Not necessarily an indication of it being a good place to work today.
If you look at senior people (like 55-60+), a of them will have JDs. Because before the MBA was popularized, JD was an elite degree if you wanted to advance your career in business. Doesn’t mean you should try to follow in their footsteps - things change. MBA makes more sense now. Same way it probably makes more sense now to work at a firm that focuses on multifamily, life science, data centers, senior housing, whatever.
Very well said, past returns don't guarantee future success. I was just looking at it from an exit perspective, similar to DLJ being the EB back in the day for banking.
