How much in hand if 12 lpa package in TTL
Hi Fishes
I want to share very bad experience I had at Mastercard
I was given offer by Mastercard in month of Dec The hike was less but looking at brand & other perks I accepted the offer & was looking forward to joining them.I got few offers & I went back to them for sole purpose of renegotiating CTC, to have a industry standard hike. They didn't reverted back for 2-3 days & just dropped a mail that they are revoking initial offer as well on grounds that they didn't like i gave other interview

I have recently joined EY SaT group as senior consultant recently in Netherlands. I’m tripple masters in MS economics, MBA and MS business analytics. Have 4 YOE in different industries but no M&A experience specifically. Any ideas what company should be offering me? I’ll be working as expert on commercial due diligence, FDD and valuation teams and doing automation alongside. is it wise to demand higher salary or promotion soon after I have proven that I can work and do it better than most?EY

If you’re interested in search funds then it’s a good internship. Good people, good experience. Will it help you land a job in PE? Absolutely not. Will it prep you for search fund path? Yes. Depends on your goals. I remember they didn’t pay much or very well. Is that still the case?
I’m not sure getting such an internship to “expose yourself to the PE landscape” is the right calculus. Search funds have a lot of overlaps with PE (mostly LMM and family offices) but they’re entirely different animals. Internships are incredibly important in bschool and you want to do something that positions you for a fulltime role. For example, you could’ve done a consulting internship, got a FT offer but realized you didn’t like it and pivot to something else in the fall recruiting cycle. With a Nextgen type gig, you should already be pretty sure whether you wanna do search fund or not. If not, there’s no point wasting that summer. If you’re pretty sure you wanna do search funds and want to test the waters, take it. You may not like it and that’s fine but that would be well worth your time.
