Product or industry?
Hi all, I’m currently a youngish senior analyst at a distressed fund. At my fund the senior analyst each have our industry - think health care, industrial, consumer, etc. I’m currently an industrial distressed debt person. I’ve been thinking to make a pivot to become an industry focused person rather than product (distressed) focused person, and want to hear your thoughts.
Most funds will organize by either of the axes and not necessarily both. At most potential jobs, you can be a distressed person (but need to be flexible on industry coverage), or an industry person (but won’t be doing distressed all the time). I feel that in my early 30s, there is more runway for me to become an industry focused person - the lower cost of capital type of funds are growing more. I have better potential career trajectory by becoming an Industrial person than a Distressed person.
Those are just my thoughts. Curious what everyone thinks.
