BB Corp Banking vs startup
Current senior with a full time role lined up at a bulge bracket for corporate banking. Really enjoyed the internship and could see myself long term remaining in CB, although it is extremely easy at to move within the company to IB if I want to.
However, I’m also talking with the M&A team at an ai startup (they built an ai and instead of selling it as a product they are acquiring firms and implementing their platform), about a potential M&A analyst role that would pay similar to my banking offer and includes an equity component.
The startup seems very interesting and is backed by reputable VCs and has what I believe to be a great business model, but I’d like some input on weighing the risks of turning down my BB CB offer for something like this.
