Hi, I am considering two offers in Strategy Consulting (MBB) and PE (Tier 1 European fund) for a first job post studies based in Europe. Do you have any insights/advice on what I should consider to make my decision (compensation, career opportunities, professional development, work-life balance etc) based on your experience?Thanks!

Tier 1 PE

Is the PE role a tenure track? Or for only 2-3 years? (That’s what they have in the US, not sure on EU model)
