Anyone make the transition from consulting to a PE backed company? Any benefits to working for one compared to a publicly owned early stage life science company?

Everything that is PE owned automatically turns into a sweatshop. Rarely does PE add value outside of rolling multiple support functions into one, or provide funding for new expansion (in which case its just like a bank). Id say go for a public owned company

The team I am on is small and I know that when I leave, they’ll have a lot on their hands. I only have a couple of interviews scheduled and nothing is solid yet.

I studied computer science in school but I didn’t do well due to life coming in the way. I got poor grades but ultimately finished my degree without any internship experience.

After three months of job search, I started for 45K at a construction company as a Jr App Support. After a year I shifted in to QA for 65k and now after a year of QA, I have finally gotten a position as a software engineer for 78K base.

The imposter syndrome is finally gone!

Hang in there, hard work pays off.
