If you do it for 7 years yeah, you're effectively a career scheduler at that point.
But nothing stops you from using it as a peg in the ladder to more commercial oriented roles in trading or origination, as many people do.
agree 100%
i hate these questions and often will reply with the following... it depends... on what your next best offer is... the gig is what you make of it but i assume you are taking the job cause you want to trade nat gas someday and in that case... its a great job
The answer to this question certainly depends on your age and knowledge of other opportunities in the world of Finance. If you are sure that you like the Oil and Gas industry and are mostly okay with working in either Houston or Chicago, then go for it. However, if you have limited exposure to other areas of Finance, I would certainly entertain other options outside of Oil and Gas.
