Looking for post-grad jobs and missed all BB FO offers but got S&O and PwC TAS and was going to switch out to more finance role but now just got an offer for PE MM Analyst role...is that harmful to take if my goal is to move to mega-fund/mba eventually ? Don't know the situation with PE analyst rep

Take it and never look back.
PE is a great track. If you have an oppertunity to get that before you do IBD you are getting carry 2 years earlier.
The 2 years I was talking about was bschool guess I should have made that clear my bad.
Do it.

Do it! It's a hell of a lot better than your other S&O and TAS offers and it'll be a great experience. Without a doubt.
Hell yeah man congrats
Def do it. You can rock that a couple years and then go to b-school and you have PE exp pre MBA. You'd be able to go a lot of other routes after that.
Take it for sure...thats a great opportunity
so what you are saying is that while I wont be given associate status (like most ex-IB), which is obvious b/c of my lack of experience...it still would not harm my career but rather after 2yrs. I would then be associate level and would just bypass all the hell of IB analyst ?
Given what's on the table do you really think you're better off working in the Big 4?
this shouldn't even be a question
take the PE gig. But as compbanker mentioned, you probably won't be given the same responsibility.
Also, i know some MM "PE" guys who hire analysts just to do sourcing. Just hope they are not doing it to you.
