Citi FSG Exits

In the process with these guys for FSG (financial strategy group). I'm not interested in PE and they seem to work on some fun projects. I was wondering what people typically exit to from here. Cursory linkedin search didn't yield any results.

Ok sure but do you have any thoughts on what kinds of other roles FSG prepares you for? Ideally within HF

 

Since no one wants to provide an answer…

FSG at Citi (Financial Strategy Group) is a specialized product team that is brought in via coverage sometimes on the CB side and sometimes on the IB side. A lot of them are people with masters that were a lot more analytical then your classic UG student. Hours don’t seem insane but they lost a lot of people recently to layoffs (Bora Bora) and it seems extremely associate heavy. Exits could be promising but haven’t seen anyone leave that team recently to truly show yield (layoffs didn’t help).

 

Push - additional insights into Citi's FSG (Financial Strategy Group)? Is it good group in terms of exposure, learnings and exit opps or more a dead-end/career banking thing?
