RX & Turnaround Career Advice

Hey, 

I know this is a far fetch, but I am currently exploring career options. I have been in RX advisory for a year or so and trying to make a move and contemplating whether I should 1) Stay in Rx Advisory 2) Move to Rx banking or 3) move to something else. Is there anyone who has walked down this road that is willing to give me some advice or chat over a few minutes? I am not sure whether this is the best place, but I have gotten a lot of info from here from time to time.

Thanks for the time guys.

Hey OP,

Don't mean to hijack your thread but what's your take on hiring for RX advisory over the next 2 quarters? Currently, I'm an Associate Management Consultant at a boutique and I'm looking to break into the industry.

 

I’m in the same boat considering what to do from RX advisory. My interests currently sit with distressed pe or private credit but not sure if it’s worth giving up decent hours. Feel free to PM me if you wanna chat
