PE to L/S Equities
Is it worth making a switch from private equity to L/S Equities? Seems like L/S pays way more at the junior level (Associate / Analyst). For context, I’ve done two years of PE and started straight out of college and have predominantly focused on healthcare investing.
What are the pros and cons? I’m open to both multi and single managers.

Lol nope
If you're asking this question at this stage...probably not worth switching.
Care to elaborate?
Is there a specific question that you have? I don’t mean to sound like an asshole, but people have written extensively on this topic already.
Making a decision about your career on junior comp alone – which is really the only consideration you flag in your intro – is a bad idea.
Totally fair. I find the diligence process in PE to be quite slow moving and enjoy following the markets, news, etc. I’ve previously interned for an Activist HF in NY which was very interesting. I often find myself reading ER reports / building quick models on publicly traded healthcare names. With that being said, appreciate that L/S equities is a different ballgame and probably also has its cons too. It would be helpful to get perspectives on pros / cons vs PE from someone who’s on the other side or has made the jump so I don’t view the space with rose tinted glasses outside in.
