Is corporate strategy a good exit opportunity? (I think my experience translates well into those roles but I’m not sure what follows after corporate strategy other than VP, etc.) Thanks.

People usually exit into a P&L ownership/ops role

Depends on what level you exit - you might end up being a manager / senior manager / director of a business unit

Great exit, perfect for general consultants imo.

Depend on what level and yoe you have. Ex with Capital ones levels:

- analyst
- senior analyst
- manager
- Sr manager
- director <-- @ some f500 firms own P&L
- Sr Director
- VP
- Managing VP <-- lvl @ Cap1 that owns P&L
- SVP
- President

Do you recommend Capital One Corp strategy? As in culture, wlb, interesting work, etc?

Culture: 10/10
- my teams have been friendlier than anyone I have ever met

WLB: 12/10
- been here since May, I can count on one hand the number of times I've worked past 5pm. One of those times was for a morning meeting with the President of one of the LOBs

Interesting work: 7/10
- cool work, I like it, I'm not bored. but it's not gonna change the world or the company lol (personally I don't mind)

Pay/compensation: 7/10
- probably lower than most consulting firms, but not terrible.
- 4yoe for myself, 105k base + 5k bonus + 15k signing. LCOL area

Dm me for more questions!

Cross posted: Has anyone ever heard of this type of real estate private equity fund structure:
