A2A Implications on Exit Opps

Hey all, 

Analyst at a top bank that is highly supportive of internal promotion / junior retention. Enjoy the firm and people, and pay is top tier. Considering going A2A but worried about limiting my optionality in terms of exit opps to PE / HF afterwards.

Is there anyone with experience (first or secondhand) that could weigh in on how the buyside views A2A promotes down the road? Do you effectively price yourself out of a buyside associate position or is there some stigma associated with the promotion?

Thanks all!
