IBD to McKinsey Private Equity Practice

Hi all,

Anyone have any thoughts on McKinsey's Private Equity Practice? Did a search and seems like the work revolves around doing DD for the PE clients. Is this sector agnostic? Would appreciate any information at all on the day-to-day of the role. 

Also, what are the potential exit opps if I decide to move on, apart from PE. I'm guessing the likes of VC, Growth Equity, Corp Dev?
