Thoughts on leaving consulting for PE ops
I currently work in a strategy consulting firm, making a TC of £115k, working about 50 hours a week doing work I enjoy.
I have received a PE operations associate offer at a lower mid-market PE funding, offer a comp of £150k.
On the one hand this sounds great, but I actually have some reservations. I currently work 50 hours a week (not too much) and don't find my job stressful.
I would expect the switch would entail more work, more stress (and it has 7 fewer days of annual leave in a year).
Overall, I would personally say the comp package does not justify the salary hike.
However, what I am not certain of is career / comp trajectory. I am happy to move role if I can see a quicker comp and career trajectory at the PE firm (at my current firm I would probably be 8-9 years away from equity partner).
Any thoughts on this?
