[{"id": "h91inx8", "text": "It\u2019s not really the same game everywhere. Do you want to start as an analyst (salary + bonus) on a team and move into a brokerage role in 2-3 years? Or start out making 150 calls a week at Marcus &amp; Millichap with no pay? I highly recommend the former. I can speak more about firms if you pm me.", "replies": [{"id": "h91jnm9", "text": "My thought process is while I have little responsibilities out of college, I would like to start in brokerage.

M&amp;M has a shit reputation for a reason.", "replies": [{"id": "h971vmv", "text": "I had an internship this summer in CRE and one next summer is lined up as well.

Learned a TON from my team and the resources provided to me.  After graduation chose to hop right into brokerage at M&amp;M (MMI) due to the uncapped structure and easily the quickest way to get to six figures.  Got an offer from JLL to be an analyst after graduation - no promises that your going to end up being a producer.  \n\nBy having the previous experience and relationships and using those to my advantage in addition to learning a new industry (sales) under a great team has been the best decision of my life.  MMI turns you into a trained killer if you are open to learning and accepting rejection for some time before getting your feet wet.", "replies": [{"id": "h9b8vfh", "text": "I feel like every smaller CRE firm is started by someone who came fron marcus. i worked at a small cre shop this summer and he came from marcus as well.  may i ask how many years ago you started at marcus?", "replies": [{"id": "h9b9mgs", "text": "2.5 years", "replies": [], "depth": 3}], "depth": 2}], "depth": 1}]
