Associate Rotation to New York - European Monkey
Dear Monkeys,
I am approaching the end of the 2 year Analyst program at my BB. In summer 2023 my bank will be running Associate rotation program and we got informed about the possibility of rotating to another office including New York. Would any of the European monkeys consider that opportunity?
In me view there are a few pros and cons, as with pretty much everything in life
Pros:
- Getting to experience New York
- Possibility to experience new industry / team
- (Probably) well-regarded experience upon return to the European office
Cons:
- Uncertain team allocation
- Lack of social circle there
- (Probably) worse work-life balance
- Delayed exit to PE
Would appreciate if anyone, who moved offices to New York or considered it could chip in!
I don't have experience from a rotation but I see that you listed delayed exit to PE as a con. As such, you should definitely start by asking yourself whether you want to continue in banking at all.
Visa situation in the US is ridiculous. As an international employee in the US I’m looking for a way out.
If you wish to pursue PE in Europe then I’d stay put if I were you. You could always travel and visit New York.
How is the process for applying the rotation?
