How do i break info cdd or odd from fdd

If you’re looking for absolutely the most pay, it’s RX. If you’re looking for most exit options it’s CDD.

ODD is behind those two and FDD is a long way back - it’s more accounting and fp&a focused.

Yeah - at worst, Rx pays the same as CDD. At best, at A&M and a few other boutiques, their pay can be substantially more, like Senior Associates clearing 350-400.

Rx exit opportunities are more limited though. Junior people tend to leave to IB quite frequently, but after a while, it’s really hard to leave Rx without taking a significant step back in compensation.

CDD shops also tend to hire and place better amongst top educational institutions - which can be useful in certain situations. Rx doesn’t care what your credentials are, it’s what you can do and what your deal experience is.

I would think RX pays the most but you also work a lot. I am in FDD and have a decent balance of pay vs work. Can’t speak too much on CDD or ODD.

We only have one significant competitor in our industry, and it’s likely my best option. Love my company, been with them for years, but I’m really struggling with how frustrating this situation is.

What can I do to make this happen? I have friends and connections at Bain and Kearney and the other firms as well, but not sure if it’s feasible now.
