Thoughts on exiting IB under 1 yr to Corp Dev / PE / HF roles? Understand experience not as fruitful as having completed a number of processes but keen to hear thoughts
I hate IB and all the inefficiencies that come with it but I am very interested in certain aspects of work (m&a structuring, valuation, negotiations, etc), dont think I can stick till the 2 yr mark before exiting
