Hello fellow monkeys, I received offers to join as a full time analyst either the Credit Risk team at a BB (GS/MS/BoA/JPM) or the M&A team of an EB (Lazard/Guggenheim/PWP).
Which of these options would be the best for international mobility, a career in private equity or private credit? Or LevFin / RX switch?

EB without doubt
Why doe? isn't it easier to join a BB, do 1-2 years of Credit Risk, then move to a LevFin team?
PM me if you want I work in CR at BB
Don’t understand why you’re asking this. Obviously M&A at an EB will get you better exits across the board - credit risk exits are there but limited, and a lot more so compared to your EB offer.
Congrats on Gugg btw
Damn so Goldman Sachs Credit Risk is worse than PWP M&A?
Yes
Hey could you pls pm me abt the recruiting process for GS risk? Thanks.
What did the recruiting process/timeline look like for GS risk?
