Would love to hear thoughts. I know mf pe would be a long shot but wanted to spend core years in Chicago with family. Also open to corp dev

Have you considered lateraling over to a EB in Chicago (Moelis, Greenhill, Lazard, etc.) which would give you ample MF looks? If that's what you want ofc - I'd go with Citi here, and I have no doubt you'd get a lot of corp dev looks
