MS Menlo / GS SF vs MBB
Between MS Menlo / GS SF and an MBB like McKinsey, which makes the most sense exit wise? I'm really interested in tech (I'm a CS major but I don't want to do SWE) and want to be involved in the Silicon Valley scene in some way or the other (either growth equity, VC, or exiting to a startup). Thinking long term, I'd want to get an MBA from a school like Stanford and join a tech company in a management role; I really want to be operational. I also want to give startups a shot. Ideally, later on in my career, I'd be a tech investor. Based on all of this, what makes the most sense post college? I know a firm like McKinsey will give a more operational experience than a bank, but a tech bank places you directly in the heart of Silicon Valley. Kind of confused here.
i think your goals are more aligned with MBB since you mention you want to stay in operational roles. if i were in your spot, if I had an MBB offer for a city with major tech presence (SF/Seattle/LA/Austin/NYC) I would pick that over IB, but otherwise SF IB would be better than MBB in a non tech city
But would doing MBB in these cities mean I necessarily work on tech related projects?
