Career Resources
It's rare for someone to have the self awareness or honesty that you have and be bottom bucket.
People look fondly at private equity experience (from a resume perspective) and it is great additional training for the rest of your life. Personally I would do PE for 2 years (if at a half decent place), then transition to something you could do for the rest of your life. Can optionally go to business school if that is advantageous to your career / you want to have fun. I would assume you would be set up pretty nicely to do just about anything in finance.
That being said, I haven't considered strategy / finance myself, so there is a chance they don't give you credit for your PE years, or its actually harder to recruit from PE than from banking. I would do first hand research on linkedin and determine yourself.
Thank you Tommy-Cruise, I appreciate the write up.
How are you getting 250k with just 2YOE? Is that actually 250k or is part of it illiquid equity from startups
Definitely a lot of luck goes into it and definitely a rare opportunity - 250k is all cash (small sign on + salary + bonus).
If noticed that F500 companies and other large established players do not pay this much. The offer above is from a small private company.
Oh look another person magically getting 200k+ for corp strat roles with 2 YOE. And said person not being smart enough to realize how above market and good of an offer that is. Look, either take that damn offer me or tell me where it is and I will gladly take it no offense.

No one is jealous of your W-2. I'm clearing close to double that 200k strat role as a banking associate if we really wanted to play that game. You're right about one thing, you really aren't that bright.
