Hey guys I currently work as a SS derivatives trader for a small broker ans I recently got offered a job as an equity trader for a large asset manager (T. Rowe, BlackRock, Vanguard) but I want to switch to equity research not sure this would help me do that. Currently have no real growth opputunities at my current firm and pay will be better and I can get my CFA if I take the job. Any advice is appreciated, thanks in advance.
