Blackstone Back Office - Yes/No?

Hey all,

Curious if the Blackstone Fund Accountant position in NYC is a death sentence for your career? Will I be able to network to middle/front office at all or will I be stuck? I have an interview coming up so any tips for that as well are greatly appreciated. Thanks!
