I can't speak to PE salaries later in careers, but I can say regardless of compensation you'll have a much easier time moving from MBB to PE early in your career. They take post MBA consultants much less often than experienced analysts.

You will make more at senior levels in PE than almost any other job (assuming you’re @ a strong performing fund). Also as @c1 said, it is nearly impossible to join PE at any level above associate. So mostly it’s BAs/early tenured EMs moving over

I have no plans in leaving PA anytime soon but I figure maybe I should look into another certification that holds value and makes me more marketable compared to my peers. Appreciate any thoughts and advice.
