Accordion PE consulting

Looking at a VP level role there. 

I am currently in corp dev, previously in IB. Have 12 yrs of WE

Need to find a new place to reset and relaunch my job search efforts after 18-24 months. How is accordion viewed by buy side firms? I am thinking it could help me build some operating experience that can be valuable. I am currently tapping out for buy side roles right now…

Welcome input from ppl who are familiar with accordion. Thx
