If you were looking to accept an offer at a credit hedge fund, one more focused on liquid assets like high yield bonds, leveraged loans, etc, which of these three offers would you take? A MF liquid credit role at a place like Apollo/BX, or a smaller, more nimble place like Diameter/MSD, and why? Thanks in advance

Would recommend the smaller shop if there is more opportunity for upside (comp/responsibility). The MF will likely always be there…smaller shop will help you develop into a PM quicker.
From my understanding they're two somewhat different roles. On pros and cons, the MF would have much better WLB, stability/longevity, with good pay. However, the more "nimble" shops you refer to would have greater upside potential, learning opportunity, and interesting work. Deciding factor for me is the tradeoff between how much you value your time outside of work when young vs. greater pay when older
