Base on my experience, for PE Ops Sr. Associate or VP is most common

What’s the ratio of comp for deal team vs PE Ops at each level?

I’ve seen new-ish managers from consulting move to Sr Asc. For deal time, then quickly get promoted to VP

Associate

I think it’s possible to join as a manager but not a principal

SA is like manager..in EMEA it’s called investment manager in some cases

I would think VP level would be the sweet spot from consulting manager

No way someone would hire you as a vp unless it’s vp value creation

Associate 100%

Purely mercenary question here: If I'm currently a 7yr working EPLI at an ID firm, and want to break $300k in the next few years, is there a route to get there?

Partnership at my firm won't come close. My transferrable book is probably less than $100k a year. BL is probably not interested in me given my law school tier and current firm. Am I dreaming?
