Bank lender, now what?

Hello monkeys!!!!

I wanna know about your guys experience working at a bank (wf/jp/baml) on the balance sheet/cmbs team. Key things you learned on the job and where you are now. Did you stay on the debt side? buy side? working your way up? 

Years in bank/salary:

Current role/salary:

How did you make the switch:

How did you prep for your interview:

I've been at my role for a few years now and wondering if now is the right time to move and get a feel for what I should be aiming.
