I am looking to jump from PA to industry. Generally, are PE backed up companies not a good choice for WLB?
Some of my audit clients are PE backed, and they seem fine. But of course I am an outsider

I work for a PE owned company (coming from big 4) and it’s way more chill

I would not join a PE backed company. None of my Portfolio companies accounting departments have WLB. Guess it depends on what kind of ownership it is. If in high acquisition mode, this is what I deal with and see they have no WLB, but if it’s a buy and hold company it could be better

Thank you, appreciate your input

Thanks, good to know. I am nervous switching to industry, don’t want to end up working same long hours..

Is IB worth the sacrifice of WLB? Obvious pay is really good but are the prestige and pay worth it if you’re planning on only doing it for a couple years?

Currently working at an IRA with great WLB. Honestly I love my job, the firm, and people I work with.

Also doing MBA part time at a T15 school. Thinking about switching to IB but I’ve done my research and I think I would burn out of IB in two years but I might be ok with that for the opportunities after.
