Shops that have a good WLB? Looking to leave out of MBB after 2 years tenure

I don't think WLB is the reason to move to PE Ops. For any fund and role worth joining, I would expect similar WLB to MBB consulting (although usually more control over your schedule to plan around personal commitments).

If a fund offers great WLB, it's actually probably a red flag that they are misleading you, or that their fund / team has little activity, which means there's little value to be added.

If you're chasing WLB move to tech or to F500 companies, albeit at a much lower expected comp trajectory.
