Has anyone considered moving from PE to FAANG?

I just found there was job opening for apple's sales financial role. Idk why but I suddenly felt I should apply for it. I am currently at lmm pe so that maybe the better brand, life style, or salary lured me somehow. I guess the only reason I hesitate to apply is that I work with nice people that are quite rare in banking. Anyway, I want to hear from you guys especially working in pe about moving to faang from pe. Many thanks in advance.
