You might get carried interest or a phat bonus if you make it to controller or beyond, but it could be boring and uninteresting AF, especially if you’re particularly interested in the industry itself. Also, good luck getting out if you decide it’s not for you

If you hate it after a year you can get out.

They don’t want us to know

Your exit ops will be limited to fund accounting, fund accounting, and more fund accounting. If you work for a PE/Hedge Firm you are seen as nothing more than an expense item and are easily replaceable, so unless you get carry you will hit a ceiling on comp. I did it for about a year and got out, and my FIL has been doing it for 30+ years and absolutely hates his life - He's constantly at risk for layoffs but he does make 200+ TC. Depending on the funds you work on it can be a grind, or it could be good WLB.

So PA is the way?

1. Oracle - 18.3 LPA fixed + probable bonus (I may or may not get)

Amadeus is also giving joining bonus of 75k. Amadeus is paying more, may give better hikes too, but I am finding it hard to let go off Oracle's brand name on my resume even if it's means around 2L less over an year. I am planning to work for atleast 3 years in my next company.

Should I reach out to the recruiter, too? Or is that overkill after two recos? I don't want to be bothersome. But I do want to show interest..

This all happened on Friday, if that matters. Thanks!
