Consulting Son or CorpDev Daughter?

Hey monkeys!

After completing my internship at a top IB (investment bank), I've decided to re-install WSO! My senior year course load is fairly light (NYU, Econ, 21m), so I have the time. Pumped I got a return offer, my dad said his team was very impressed with my effort!

Anyways, I was debating this question with some friends (who also go to NYU) at lunch: consulting son or corpdev daughter? Personally, I'd rather have a consulting son, although this means they will likely be gay. I just think it'd be hard to be a women in CorpDev given how many smart men there are out there.

Excited to hear yall's thoughts, and glad to be back on WSO!

Best,
Jeffery
