Have an offer to move to a Fortune 500 company as a finance manager and an offer to move to a small PE owned company ($200m in revenue) as a business strategy manager. Same pay. Small company has me working with CFO/CEO/PE firm directly and large company has more perks/benefits and more defined career progression. Which to take? I’m conflicted!

where are you at in your career journey?

Been in consulting for 6 years currently an SA that should’ve been promoted. Started out of school.

Probably depends on the equity you get from smaller company especially if it’s PE owned

If you are part of the Management Incentive Program (MiP) that PE firms often implement then a PortCo could be interesting. If you don’t know what that is then you probably won’t get it, and be very wary of the classic case of PE firms setting sky high KPIs then aggressively cost cutting when they’re not hit.
