While it doesn't seem to be super common, I have come across a fair amount of investment professionals in the LA market who at one point or the other have gone out on their own, and then subsequently returned back to working for firm in-house. Sometimes planned, other times due to a layoff that prompted them to start doing their own thing. In some cases, if you use LinkedIn as a guide, it seems some of these folks have maintained their formal side hustles while continuing to work in-house for a company.
I am in this boat, and am in the early stages of testing the waters to return to an in house investment role.
Curious as to anyone here who has done this, and whether the firms you interviewed with questioned or had concerns with why you left a 9-5 to do your own thing, only to return to wanting a 9-5.
