Industry group to PE

I will work in a good and active industry group in MS, but I heard from my colleagues that a lot of our M&A gets outsourced to MS M&A. How much will this hurt me come time for PE recruiting, especially since I want to work for a megafund?

And, more importantly: what can I do to gain as much execution experience as I possibly can?

Thanks!

thanks for the info, repnation. the exit opps are indeed good, but there are also guys from those industry groups who go to so-so places. i was wondering what it takes to land KKR out of MS Industrials or the like.
