MM IBD or MBB consulting for PE exit opps?

Just landed an offer for an NYC summer analyst position next year in a Middle Market bank (IBD, product/industry group to be determined). Currently interning at one of the MBBs in Asia, and plan to apply to MBB FT in NYC. The difference in pay is balanced by WLB, so no strong preference in the short-term for comp/hours. Only interested in exit opps.

Assuming both go well, which option, MBB consulting or MM IBD would be better to exit into PE investing roles at megafunds? I know MBBs tend to exit into PE DD roles, but interested in investment roles. Also interested in private credit.


Are there even any megafund PE investment exit opps available in MM IBD, even if I go into FSG/M&A?
