Are non-deal team Mega Fund PE roles post consulting a good exit? (Ex. COO office roles, Strategy roles). I hear WLB is not that good and unsure how comp is compared to consulting, since I'm guessing a big chunk is bonus

Depends what do you define as a good exit, a brief take:
WLB: Stress level is similar if not higher (long hours/high demand with the increased risk of having low control over final decisions and execution on the PortCo whereas in consulting you know you’ll have to wait for evaluation season) // Travel could be less or the same depending on where is the PortCo (PE) or current clients (consulting)
Salary: PE is higher than consulting (incl MBB), they’re similar if you don’t get carry, and if you do then it’s significantly higher than consulting
If you’re not in track or not interested on becoming Partner then it’ll be a matter of time for you to pivot, PE Ops will keep you in a good pace and high optionality for the future (if you perform well)
