Decision time: Private Equity @ Independent Sponsor/MM Fund vs Private Credit @ Mega Fund
I'm trying to juggle the benefits/trade offs between these two opportunities. I'm currently an equity analyst covering technology at a medium sized (~$10bn) long only asset manager and looking to pivot to the private markets. Not surprisingly this has not been an easy transition so I'm grateful to be in a position where I'm able to evaluate a few opportunities prior to accepting an offer. I have two offers, both in the same city with around the same compensation, but one is at a start-up fundless sponsor analyzing equities (pre initial fund raise) while the other is at a megafund on the credit side. I'm not sure how common this situation is, but I was hoping to hear some opinions from this community on how you'd weigh each factor in your decision making process. On the one hand, I've enjoyed working on the equity side and the transition from public to private equity tells a more succinct story on my resume. The alternative is gaining experience on the credit side at a much more recognizable firm.
Thanks for reading & appreciate any insights.
