Research at a MFO

Hey guys,

I work at a mfo, I get to review every investment opportunity in every asset class for our clients ranging from a direct investment to a credit hedge fund. I really like my job, comp is ok, work life is great. Downside is that the relationship managers have all the power and take the best comp.

In the future I would love to transition to a single family office, endowment or foundation that invest through funds. Just wanted to know if anyone is pursuing a similar path what are the cons and pros of working on this in the future.
