Exit Opps - GIC NY

GIC is the exit opp. It's an extremely well-respected SWF, I'd argue the most coveted one among all, though that's always debatable. I'm not sure what you want out of a career but you'll get paid fairly though not outrageously good, will get a decent work-life balance at least relative to rest of the industry, interesting deals/research, no fundraising nonsense and will likely have plenty of internal mobility to get exposure to different groups/asset classes. Your classic exit opps will likely be other SWFs, pension funds, maybe endowments depending on your role. I don't see people going from captive balance sheet investors to "commercial" funds often, though I've seen it happen and it can be done. Especially at the senior level it's just a very different mindset - less about running an investment business, more about investing itself and corporate dynamics. Most people at these places are happy with everything with the occasional complaints about politics and comp (but you get that everywhere). Maybe you want something more fast-paced at the junior levels but most mid-career professionals would jump at the option to join GIC because the lifestyle vs. pay is pretty great.
