Reneging on p e offer for large SM seat

Currently in my 2nd year of banking. Signed mf pe last year and just received the hedge fund offer and unsure what to do. The fund is one where a seat opens up every 3-5 years and people rarely ever leave so I’m likely not going to get this opportunity again. Goal of mf pe was to exit to a fund like this one.

Interesting situation, i think you need to speak to more senior people (without revealing too much). I’d renege tho
