Do FAANG. Literally no one I know who has gone to FAANG has regretted their decision. Almost everyone I know who has gone into PE has. The money is better, but not by as much as you think. And everything else is miles worse.
Why did you leave Amazon?
Coach
Not being mean, but you won’t easily get a PE offer. There are so limited on seats. Push for faang!
Coach
Faang has more spots. Unless you’re 22-25 in banking or finance consulting, an associate spot at a PE firm is slim. Then vp and above you better have PE experience and b school.
Unless you talking PE ops, then ignore all of above haha
What do you do now ?
Coach
What’s your background? What type of firm? MBA?
Background is a large amount of stem around topics like ML and operations research. Strong math/cs skills. Right now I work as a consultant doing cases involving a lot of financial modeling. No mba.
I want to leave, and I’m willing to work and network to get there (already in touch with headhunters), but I just don’t know which way to go.
Also to be clear I’m not sitting here with offers from both or anything, I am just contemplating the best path for me
