Hi all - I am a first year analyst at a strong tech M&A group in San Francisco; I've decided to put off PE recruiting for a while because I was unsure what industry/group/city I wanted to be in.
I'm from California, so being within close range to my parents is always nice; I also 'get' the lifestyle here, have lived in the big cities here, so I enjoy the nice weather, the social dynamics in LA are pretty fun to navigate, etc.
NYC is still somewhat 'dreamy' to me; I've spent some time there so I know it's not all great, and that it's very hectic, but it seems like a good time for a few years in your early/mid 20s. Also it generally seems like there is a really big amount of opportunity in the city relative to other places, naturally. I'd live in West LA (Santa Monica, love that area), if I could.
Any thoughts on which you'd prefer? I want to work in either growth or buyout in tech/consumer. NYC and LA are top choices, I like SF but it's too familiar at this point, ready to try something new. I heard the LA PE culture is closer to NY than it is SF (more value oriented, thrifty, etc). Would love perspective from folks who have tried either/both. Thanks!
