Considering to switch from growth equity to IB for a handful of reasons that I’m not going to get into. Curious how I could be framing the switch over if my current reasons aren’t worthwhile sharing with the IB group (comp, career progression…etc).
If you were trying to make the transition what reasons would you tell the hiring manager?
