Accepted an offer at a no name boutique in NY starting this summer - am receiving lots of looks from reputable MM banks in NY. Thinking about recruiting for buy side. Is it beneficial for my career to renege on the no name boutique and go to a reputable middle market firm in same city? Any advice or insight is helpful. Mentors telling me to stay where I’m at and be content.

Well, do you have an offer to go to this better firm? or are you just asking a hypothetical
Yes
If you have the MM offer, I'd say rengage and take that. It is much easier to get into PE and a higher spot in PE vs the boutique firm
Thank you - is it possible to recruit for PE at a no name boutique in NYC?
It's definitely possible but don't expect to go to KKR or Blackstone. You'll get LMM PE probably if you make some good connections maybe a less well-known MM
