Any advice evaluating LMM PE opportunities? Am late stage with a very small fund. Founders are great, very strong background but intentionally want to stay in LMM (easily could’ve raised 2x fund size).

Always wanted to be an investor but 2 concerns: 1. lower base comp (I have a family so base, not just TC, matters), and 2. If it doesn’t work out I would’ve taken a comp and brand hit for worse WLB and be stuck. Left MBB ~2 years ago so older and non traditional, so this may be my only shot.

So...I started my own company in 2018. Things went off like a ROCKET. Its a small Remodeling company and we specialize in higher end bathrooms and kitchens etc. I love working with my hands.

Hey sharks!

I have prior experience of React+AWS (2yrs)
Then joined an org where I was bound to work on plain js and outdated libs (1 yr)
I gave numerous interviews.
Common feedback : You're very strong in Js but seems like you're not day to day coding in React (which is absolutely true).
In current org work pressure is quite much, tough to practice seperately. (Theoretical knowledge of react is good, but need practical knowledge)
Requested my org to assign me react proj, they didnt.
Plz help!
