What are the implications of choice of team within IBD?

Hi everyone,

I was wondering what the implications of starting in a sector team or FIG would have on future career. Basically, does each team provide as much of flexibility in switching career paths? I am interested in FIG, but I don't want to limit my future career options already.

Thanks!

Was recently interested in the same topic...there are already a lot of forums addressing group placement if you search for IBD groups
