Salary vs incentive based compensation - career advice
Hi everyone - I'm currently recruiting for equity side acquisitions roles within the CRE industry. I initially wanted to work somewhere entrepreneurial where a big chunk of my compensation would be based on bonuses from deals we sign, equity carry, etc. 

Given the current state of the market and interest rates expected to rise, would it be reasonable to assume that deal flow will likely decrease dramatically over the next few years? If so, would it make more sense to look for safer jobs with a higher base salary / cash guarantee?

Thanks in advance!
