The order of operations in AE is 1) effects, 2) masks, 3) transforms. To do things in a different order, you generally have to precomp.

Every transform and every mask adds another node to your graph while in AE they're just properties of a layer. I'm just saying the AE approach has advantages too. I know I've filed FR's countless times to have transform and mask become their own filters / nodes that can be ordered as needed. it is quite tiring to be precomping all the time over stuff like this.
