Corp Dev in Europe

Just wanted to get some insights re. Corp Dev in (Western) Europe

Is it possible to join at a Manager / Director level as an Ass3 in a BB (i.e. 6-7 years of IB experience)? How large could the paycut be?

Are the hours that much better than BB IB? I was afraid that working at CorpDev at MF / UMM Portcos could be tough in terms of hours / culture. Is it more "secure" to work at a large European F100 Company?
