Burnt out 1st year here in NYC.
Currently at a Euro BB and am wondering if it is worth it to switch to an American BB.
I have zero interest in staying in finance and want to exit out to something not in finance.
I live in the USA and am wondering if it is worth it to switch over to an American BB for the better name value. Would it make a huge difference when prospecting non-finance opportunities or is this stupid?
