Life after IB - what are your plans?
Like the topic title says; what are you planning on doing after IB (if you're not planning on a more 'traditional' PE exit)?
I'm personally in my 4th year in M&A and quite enjoying it (moved to a firm/group with great deal flow but fairly good hours + culture), so I definitely see myself work until VP level. As that is probably +/- 2 years away, I feel like planning for the future is something I should start soon to make sure I make a good career decision afterwards.
Currently looking into international moves (With this option I would probably lateral into other M&A roles, just to see more of the world and postpone my decision on what to do after M&A) and corporate development/strategy roles (Would like somewhat better hours and building on something longer term). Would be interested in hearing what others are planning on doing after their M&A stint (however long it may have been)!
Just like you, enjoying IB, see my self as a "lifer." Lateraled from an EB to a regional boutique after my first year, so the hours are much better. Excited to be an A2A and continue on through vp
