Should I stick in my job to manager (c1-1.5yrs) or try to jump into PE as an Investment Associate? If I stick to Manager then could jump as a Investment Manager instead. Thoughts on skills/experience/comp?

Is PE where you want to ultimately end up? The skills and experience don't perfectly overlap so the sooner you can jump over the better.

Get experience and into the industry now. Grow and thrive asap!

If you know that’s what you want then take the exit now.
