Hey guys, I am about to complete a year in IB, and will start the recruitment process soon for buyside roles. I think I am more interested in VC/Growth vs late stage PE, but wanted to know more about the difference in comp between the two. I am looking at roles in London, so would be great to know whose comp is higher and who are the top payers for VCs/early growth.

Idk about London, but in SF/SV comp is actually the same if not higher in VC and growth as long as it is tier 1. I moved from BCG to a tier 1 Vc and now have carry… total comp is pretty much the same as all my friends at mega funds, but the work is a million times more interesting unless you are super into finance…

Just do Early stage PE / late stage growth then choose

Ex: Warburg

Late stage comp will always be higher. Don’t know exactly top shops in London but imagine GA is up there
