I was curious if anyone has experience with this type of scenario.
What happens if you recruit for PE after your first year (to start after your 3rd) with the intention of being a 3rd year analyst and then leaving but then you get offered an A2A promotion after year 2? Do you take the promotion and then leave after a year as an Associate or do you decline the promotion and try to stay on as a 3rd year analyst?

Why would you decline the promotion, take it then leave after a year
That’s what I assumed would be the course of action but I wasn’t sure if there were any issues involved (e.g. any sort of contractual obligations keeping associates at the firm) that would make this approach difficult
