It's fine as long as you can actually grow a beard and don't look like a 13 year old who hasn't noticed he should start shaving, and on the other extreme keep it well groomed and don't go for a mountain man situation.
Regular beard is fine, wouldn't rock a goatee though and definitely wouldn't rock a chin strap, soul patch, or anything else that makes you look like you stepped out of a 90s/00s butt rock video
Also wouldn't do a mustache unless you're of Arab descent, they can pull it off for some reason, the rest of us can't.
It's totally fine to rock a beard, but I think there are a few (fair) rules. Make sure that it's actually a beard and not that shitty in-between where you just haven't shaved for a few days so you don't look like you're coming off a bender. Keep it nice and cleaned up / manicured as well so it looks professional. Basically, make sure it look intentional and well-groomed.
As someone else mentioned, don't do any of the random other facial hair looks. No goatee or power stache or something like that.
Nobody cares anymore. You don’t have to wear black cap toe oxfords, you can wear borderline tennis shoes at most places. You don’t have to wear jackets and ties.

Don't look like a pedo and you'll be good. I’m always clean shaven to be more conservative.
Im an analyst with a full beard. Yet to meet anyone else that has a beard like mine. Idc. I keep it neat.
Same. Key is keeping it neat / nice lineup
I don't think it's a big deal but I keep clean shaven just because the higher ups might be weirdos about it.
it's a small thing to do just to make sure you are on the good side of senior. I do get less chicks now thought
At an EB, nobody gives a fuck. Multiple MDs and partners rocking beards, bunch of juniors doing so as well.
Nobody cares, as long as your work product is good
People at all levels rocking facial hair at my shop.
Also notice professionals at most of our private equity clients rocking facial hair or scruff (associate to partner).
Our team has a good number of people at all levels rocking facial hair too, it’s not an issue.

Depends if it looks good.
Currently an analyst at a boutique and will sometimes grow a beard in the winter.
As long as it is kept trim, no one cares. Just look professional
Beards are trash, yall look like yall belong under the Greyhound bus-stop drinking 40s of Natty Ice.
