MF Tech PE Exit Opportunities
Hey y'all, I'm currently a senior who's going to be doing tech PE at a MF (KKR/Vista/WP) when I graduate. I was just curious if anyone had any color on what the most common exit opportunities look like. Is it a lot of staying in PE for the long haul (or leaving to other funds), exits to growth or...
How bad is working hard in your 20's
Is working hard in your early to mid 20's really that bad? I feel like if you work 23-25 in IB, then transfer to PE or HF, you're now working 60-80 hours versus 80-100, you have a bit more of a life and better pay. Then by 30 you're making 500-1m, and you can exit to something around 50 hours a...
Lazard Real Estate
Hi Everyone, I was just wondering if anyone knows much about Lazard's Real Estate IB team? They did some deals with Brookfield which seems pretty cool, and seems like an all around solid team. I was just wondering if there is some insight on hours, culture, and in particular exit opps? If I realize...
PJT Park Hill
Interested in getting more information on PJT Park Hill. What's the culture like? Exits? How competitive is it to get in (compared to MM REPE, MF REPE, BofA/Citi/GS REIB). Interview difficulty as compared to other boutiques? What profiles/backgrounds are they looking for? When do apps open (assuming...
Megafund recruiting from IB
Where do megafunds/headhunters typically recruit from? Is it only EBs and BBs, a select few EB/BBs, or others as well?
Blah experience at MF, heading to B-school. Recruiting tips?
Finishing up a WFH stint at a BX / KKR /TPG-level MF that doesn't give out explicit return offers (you have to "ask to come back"). Had a blah experience, bunch of frisky deals but didn't close a deal and my references are going to be pretty solid but not gushing (I was a solid resource, not the...
Lateral or B-School?
Hi all, I'm currently an associate going into his 3rd year at a MF in NY . I'm starting to think of next steps and am curious to hear the thought process of those who were on a "partner" track role who decided to go to B-School instead. What pros and cons did you weigh in making the decision? Did...
Incoming Analyst - Potential 3rd Year - PE Recruiting
I'm a college senior at an Ivy skating through the end of my senior year, awaiting the upcoming summer where I will begin as an Analyst in a top BB Group (think GS TMT , GS HC/CR, GS FIG , MS Menlo, MS M&A). I've been thinking about my options as far as the next couple years, and with the group I'm...
Chicago - Megafund placement
Hey guys, Seems like a lot of the Megafunds do not have offices in Chicago. Saw on one old thread there were two people fighting back and forth regarding this so I just wanted to settle it out here and see what the real deal was. Do top groups in Chicago frequently place Analysts at Megafunds? If...
Confused about megafund exit opportunities
Okay...I'm currently a senior that will be starting FT at a top tier BB ( GS , MS). I'm not at a particularly strong target school and have thus worked very hard throughout college to end up where I am. My ultimate goal is to exit into a megafund. That said, after reading a number of posts on WSO...
What do most Megafund associates exit to?
When I look at most megafund websites, it seems like there are 5 or more associates for every VP. This implies that the vast majority are not promoted. So what do they exit to? Smaller PE shops? Is this move very difficult after not getting promoted at the original firm? What now? Private equity...
