hey guys - ive been debating between a PE firm specialized in real estate and a top 10 (not MBB/not management consulting) consulting firm.
PE upside: much hands on responsibility; little office politics;
downside: small name recognition, learning may be limited to real estate
consulting upside: more name recognition for future opportunities/B schools
downsides: more office politics; learning may be limited to one aspect of diverse clients
i'm mostly concerned about learning/skills building + exist opportunities. please share your insights!

RE PE sounds great, but only if you have a real passion for RE. You're less likely to be pigeonholed in Consulting though.
How large is the RE PE firm ? What's the strategy ?
