Overall reputation of Brokerages, REITs, REPE

I recently changed careers from working at GS as a FI to real estate. I’m now working at CBRE Industrial Brokerage. I have a background in finance but know I have the ability to sell.

Since I’m new to RE I want to know who has the best reputation in the business in all areas of the business.

Brokerage REIT REPE Development

Which jobs have the most prestige and from the little background I’ve given, what trajectory should I aspire to work towards.

Thanks

within each category (brokerage, reits, repe, dev), there are firms with a good rep and firms with a bad rep. i think you're approaching this the wrong way. figure out what you want to do / what asset class(es) you want to work in and go from there in singling a few firms that have a good rep.
