Only Y1 associate in PA, but thinking of leaving. i’m interviewing for a portfolio analyst job soon and would start after busy season. i know there’s a big exit opp culture in PA, but my question is is that the same culture being a portfolio analyst? or is that looked upon as a more sustainable career with good WLB and competitive pay

If you can, I'd recommend hanging on until senior associate and getting your CPA license. Then the doors of opportunity will be wide open in any direction you want to go.

Agreed, I had significantly more opportunities the moment I put senior and CPA on my resume
