Hi all,
I just received an offer at CFPE for next summer, can anyone provide me with some insight into their reputation/culture/pay? How do they stack up when compared to more front-office roles like IB or ER?
Thanks!
EDIT: I know CFPE is an asset manager, but WSO won't let me post it to the asset management forum as it keeps on automatically moving it to the PE forum.
