How Low Is Too Low in Terms of LO AUM?

First time poster - hoping to learn a little about the LO AM industry. Appreciate y'all as it's a been a valuable resources exploring different parts of the industry. I've just joined a regional firm and could use some advice that I would not be comfortable talking to my mentors/coworkers about. I'm about six months out of my undergraduate degree and have been working as an junior analyst at an asset manager covering a specific sector. Apologies for lack of details; staying vague for the purpose of anonymity. I am happy where I am at, although I'd like to know what exits look like outside of the firms like PIMCO, Fidelity, Blackrock, Dodge & Cox, etc. Seats appear to be incredibly scare after the associate level in the LO world, which I know is the consensus on this site. I know there is much more too it - but how much of a factor is a firm's AUM in terms of exits? $50B+?


Thanks guys
