Amazon Biz Dev vs Private Credit for Consulting/Strategy
Hey everyone,
Looking for some insight here. I'm currently interning in private credit at a large asset manager with $1T+ AUM, primarily working on funding LBOs and M&A. The internship is a full year, so l'll have a solid amount of deal experience built up by the end, albeit on the credit side.
Recently, I received an offer for a Business Development role at Amazon, focused on launching a new service, likely within Amazon Shipping. The role involves building a pipeline, working on market segmentation, gathering customer insights, and contributing to the development of a new product. It's heavily client-facing, with a lot of direct engagement to understand customer needs. There are also opportunities to pivot into other business areas/roles (I imagine account management, product management too potentially) within Amazon if I decide to broaden my focus. I'm trying to weigh my options.
For someone interested in consulting or a strategy role, how would this Amazon Biz Dev experience stack up compared to staying in private credit?
How is Business Development generally viewed as a career path at FAANG, especially in terms of progression, comp & long-term career growth?
What kind of exit opportunities could I realistically look at if I stayed on this Amazon path?
Would love to hear thoughts from anyone with experience in either area. Thanks!
