Quick question for everyone here. I am currently a senior associate at a big 4 firm. I have recently received an offer from Blackstone for an operations strategy role. I have only been in my role for 2 months. Blackstone’s offer is around a 15% comp increase. Would it look bad on my resume for me to leave two months into this role?

$$ talks. If its 15% more from 130-140, then it’s worth it to me. You can always come back to consulting imo

It doesn't look bad if you don't make a habit of it. I wouldn't necessarily leave for 15% mind, unless the Blackstone role is much more aligned to what you want to do

It sounds pretty similar to what I already do. I think the benefit would be not being a consultant. I’ve heard PE hours are worse than consultant hours. I just don’t know if operations is better/worse than what people make it sound like.

Would you mind sharing the Blackstone offer’s comp?

What level did you join at?
