IR roles are not ideal in PE/PC and usually do not get carry (which informs that view). It’s not a bad a gig from what I can tell but it is not something that transfers over into deals etc if that’s your goal in PE/PC. Excelling in PWM should provide more opportunity and pay in the long run imo.
IR is fundraising / marketing. You will do no investing or any actual finance work although your understanding of PE strategy, fund structures, etc will be critical. If you enjoy actual finance work, stick with PWM
Why do you keep bumping this? You got your answer so at this point you're just spamming for no reason.
Investor Relations =/= PE in the sense 99% of people on this forum are discussing. You're not an investor, you get no carry, your comp is at best maybe 50-60% that of the equivalent YOE investment team role at the entry-level (the higher the position, the bigger the difference gets). There's 1% chance you ever convert from an IR role to an investment team/execution role at even the less structured funds, but really 0% for a MF so it's not "breaking in" to anything.
There's no point in comparing any further. It sounds like you like the team you're on now and they have good scale, so you should stay in PWM. WLB will be better and over time you're almost certainly going have better comp.
