Small Growth Equity Firm vs. MM IB
Hi
I have recently been fortunate enough to receive two full-time offers and am unsure which offer to take. I would therefore very much appreciate some advice.
My long-term goal is to do growth equity but I am not really sure which alternative would be best to reach that goal. Also, I have done an IB internship in the past and did not like the work all that much. However, I would probably be able to stick it out for 1 or 2 years.
The first offer is from a MM IB (think Jefferies, HL, Rothschild, Blair). The firm has good deal flow and is involved in quite a few interesting, large M&A deals.
The other offer is from a small growth equity firm (think $500m AUM).
Base comp is comparable but of course total comp would be higher at MM IB.
Appreciate any advice that you might have and feel free to ask any questions!
I'd probably take the MM IB. All of those are good names in the MM space so I think you could find something similar or better to the GE offer afterwards. Also I'm risk averse and feel that 2 years in a solid IB will provide a better career foundation than the GE shop. Just my 2 cents.
Thanks!
I always think winning careers start with a solid analyst program
