Hi Londoners,
Currently in the PE group in consulting primarily doing CDD work. Interested in doing PE but don't know if the jump is worth it - e.g. far longer hours, weekend work for better pay but quicker burnout vs steadily climbing the consulting ladder.
I don't know enough about the lifestyle as a lot posts in this forum are US centric. Can somebody, particularly ex consultants, shed light on what it's really like to be working in PE in London?
