1st Year at a No-Name [HELP]
TL;DR I hate my job at a no name boutique and don't know what to do next. My long-term goal is to work at a family office.
I am 8 months into my job as an analyst for a no name boutique in a major city in the southeast. I wanted to get advice on next steps as I am not having a good experience and am not learning skills that are transferable to other areas of finance. My end goal is to work at a family office, at this point I'm considering the following.
-Lateral to a well-known investment bank.
Pros: prestige, more comp, more learning ops.
Cons: Way more hours than I am currently working and might not be able to cut the learning curve
-Go into asset management or real estate private equity with goal to network into family office at some point
Pros: More transferable skills for what I eventually want to do (manage a family office)
Cons: ??
-Finish my two year stint and recruit for MBA then make a career change
Pros: Get better network from school, focus on my career, improve knowledge base
Cons: I hate my current job and don't know if I can wait that long, not sure if I can survive two years making 0 dollars while at an MBA
Please help, any advice is appreciated
