Starting off I went to a nontarget school in the midwest with the aspiration of getting into finance of same degree. After graduating I found myself doing economic analysis for a large health insurance company. As I was looking at the internal job postings I found a M&A position for other companies they acquire. I am wondering if anyone else has had a role like this and how it ended up playing out.
