Stay in country coverage vs. work in financial hubs?
Hi all, I’m an Investment Banking Analyst with one of the top tier BB (think GS / MS / JPM) in a non-financial hub office (not NYC / London / HK / SG). I do coverage for my country and am working in a very lean team with support from regional team. I have two options I’m considering: 1) Do a Master’s in a top business school and aim for a job in one of the big financial hub (I have to quit my current job), OR 2) Stay with my current job and have a clear path upwards (lean team means less competition among peers). Option 1 means I can get exposed to solid deal experience and get to play in the big leagues but I’m worried about cultural fit, Option 2 means I am stuck in my little country coverage analyst role but am more sustainable in the long run. What would you do if you were in my position? What are your considerations?
Sounds like you’re in India, i would suggest to move to the buyside all BB’s have great exits and then go for a sponsored MBA, if you like the culture in the US, pay back your employer and recruit for the US
