Former, mainly due to comission

Product and commission because of the motivation. it will mean more $ down the line if you're motivated to perform better now.

I'm the reverse, but there's no right way. I like being able to feel stable, even when things are a bit up and down for me personally/with my life.

2020 grad M&A/PE Associate in LCOL area thinking about moving to a ECVC/M&A boutique. I generally like the work I do and the people I work with, but I really don’t like the hours and the constant late nights and weekends. Currently on pace for 2250. Boutique I have been eyeing has billable hour requirement of 1500-1600 and comes with a 20-25% paycut. Is this a stupid idea and should I grind it out until I can move in house? Will this ruin my opportunities down the road?
