What are the chances of transitioning to PE Ops (value creation) after working at big tech for 1-3 years post MBB.

Does tech (e.g., Google, Meta, Stripe, PayPal etc) ruin your chances of making it into PE Ops? Assuming you already had the profile for PE Ops in consulting prior to tech

Smaller tech probably better than big tech. I would recommend you pivot to high-growth tech firms for a year or two then make the jump, easier story to tell that way.

Go look up some PE backed tech companies then you’ll get an idea

It depends on the type of role at the tech firm or/and whether the PE fund is invested in the tech industry. My 2 cents is better operators have worked in consulting and ran a dept/P&L in industry

I think you have good odds. Your tech experience won't necessarily translate into a higher role vs what you would have received immediately post MBB, but your chances of getting the job and your chances at being successful in the job are much better

Hello all,

I'm a PA in the PNW working for a private group staffing ED's in several hospitals. Recently the group has asked the PA's to take on a couple new roles (triaging and rapid track from triage i.e. straightforward ESI 4, 5). With these changes the PA's are considering asking for increased pay in the form of an addition of a COLA (cost of living adjustment) to our normal salary. Was wondering if any other PA's in the ED have these in their contracts and at what rate.

-Thanks
