So just got an offer for an AM that purely deals with endowements and non-profit AM. My other offer is middle/back office of a bulge.
I eventually want to get to M&A. Which would be the best route to get there.
If you renege on a back office deal does anyone actually care? thanks.

If you want to possibly make it into M&A in the future, I'd def take the AM job. No question about it.
