Just had my evercore superday for the houston office. I am juggling an offer between that and KKR new york and their special sits division. EVR pays higher, but KKR has a great name and people. Any insight on what to choose? P.S. I come from a top target (HWYPS).

If you want to PE long term (specially if you are interested in special situations) pick KKR, if you are not certain you might argue EVR could give you more optionality but I think also KKR would be good if you want to switch in the future. The pay is not relevant in this type of situation.
I wonder which one of (HWYPS) WHARTONprince is from?
No but seriously masters is right, go with what you think you'll be interested in long term. The pay difference is insignificant.
KKR special sits pays very little and I need $ to pay off student debts and buy my grandma a range rover. Although I'm interested in special situations, I feel like I should just tough out a couple years in oil even though I would literally have to tell my radical environmentalist girlfriend that I'm doing solar energy banking in Houston. Sigh.
How much student debt?
I will pay off your students debts and buy your grandma a ranger rover if you let me lateral into your KKR position
This is a wild thread
I’d hoe my grandma out for kkr
Can't tell whether this is serious or not... do you want to work in oil and gas? If so, Evercore is one of the best shops out there. Do you want to work in Houston? If so, Evercore pays the most and has the most relevant deal flow for analysts.
