Stay for mba, give me your IB offer
What do you want to do in (professional) life?
If you do not have the background for it in Finance, it will be harder (though still possible) to switch to IB. I won't waste time in Consulting if Finance indeed is your destination.
Depends on what your area of interest is and whether you’d want the big-4 consulting hours or the much longer IB hours. Of course pay trajectory will be different. But there is no harm restarting your career to put yourself on the right path.
On top of that you can always go back to consulting with industry experience, or to move to private equity after your IB experience.
I’d say go with your heart and not overthink it. Consulting is not what it’s cracked up to be.
Go make bank in Paris. Let it go.
I agree with this statement. They may not have prestige in US but they may in EU. Modify resume to say prestigous french bank xyz. And no one in us will doubt you.
Go IBD, first year comp + bonus will prob be higher than your b4 salary anyway. And you’ll develop some actual skills
Those shops you mentioned are great and you could (relatively) easily lateral to a larger bb if you wanted to after a year or so. Plus B4 brand is so diluted anyway. Also you’ll have a leg up if you already have IB experience when you’re doing MBA recruiting
