So I have a bit of a dilemmma. I work for a boutique pharma consulting firm and am looking for the next opportunity. While I was thinking of trying to lateral to a bigger firm focused on pharma/biotech (Clearview/IMS/ZS), I am interested in equity research as well and passed the CFA Level 1 in December. I recently got an offer for a equity research associate position with an interesting group.
Option 1: Take the equity research gig which pays more but remain concerned about the exit opps.
Option 2: Decline the offer, look at other consulting gigs which I may or may not get and continue from there.
I know I didn't time this right, but this is the hand I have right now. What do you think?
What interests you about ER? Because you could move to a more DD focused pharma MC firm or try getting staffed on more research projects.
I currently work on products/brands from a strategy perspective, but want to venture into more of a finance role. I think ER would provide an opportunity to utilize my science background and be a stepping stone to other opportunities as well.
What consulting firms other than LEK offer DD opportunities in pharma? That is definitely a route I would be interested in too
