I like banking should I still switch to PE?
Currently work in IBD in London and have one PE investing role lined up and one IB position both in my home country. I do like my job but the hours are a bit annoying sometimes.
Basically I'm deciding if I want to do PE or IB in the long term.
In IB i would join a smaller bank (no boutique but regional bank) and eventually go into ECM (ECM seems like a much better career banker position than M&A). I do hope that the firm will be less hours but everything else will remain similiar.
On the other hand there is PE. The reason why I eventually want to go the ECM line is i get a bit annoyed by modelling and in the long term i see myself more on the selling side than buying.
However, obvs i know that PE is more prestigous and in the end money matters the most to me

If you actually like it that means you’ve struck gold in a good group. For the love of God, DON’T listen to anyone on this site and go to PE then. They’re going to try and convince you that you’ll get an “investor perspective”...horseshit just enjoy where you’re at and make that money
Don't like my group at all haha my VP is the definition of a manchild and literally tells me all his problems but I just genuinely enjoy the work and make good money for an easy job.
I will downgrade banks anyway since I want to go back home but there I assume to work less, still make good money (less than London though) and actually live close to friends and family. The PE will be in the same city but from what I heard of the current junior, lifestyle is the definition of being horrible (10bn AuM, just raised a 2bn usd fund, and are 8 people in total incl. partner and secretary)
