Leave IB <1yr for big tech Corp Dev?
Im closing in on my 1st year at a BB and this isn't something I'd want to do for the long term, though highly appreciate the skills/experiences gained along the way. Frankly I'm quite burned out and can count on 1 finger the amount of times I didn't have to work on a weekend.
Was lucky enough to be offered a corp dev position (especially considering my lack of experience) given that a few of the interviewers I really clicked with and pushed for me, and I dont necessarily mind the pay cut for the better wlb. Also Im in a industry team and I find myself very interested in our M&A deals but couldnt give a shit about ECM/DCM
And though I think I'll be much happier there (meaningful work and hours wise) - not sure if I should stick out IB for at least 2 yrs? Regret I may miss out on further opportunities and experiences by leaving early especially under a year.. thoughts?

I would honestly stay the full year - your bonus is likely to come in July/Aug. I was in your exact same shoes and left immediately after my bonus. Reaching that 1-yr mark just looks better + you'll get some nice cash.
good point ive been thinking the same thing, the bonus is one thing but leaving under a year is another, dont really wanna pigeon hole myself by leaving IB this early! i guess its just a game of stamina and how much more i can take hahah
