MM PE vs Pension PE vs Publics
I'm really torn between working in the public markets and the private markets.
I've had past experience in both, currently in MM PE in Toronto, and I'm getting close to FT recruiting. WLB and comp are the two things pulling me to either side. I'm willing to give up some comp for better WLB, but I don't want to end up regretting my decision in the future in regards to the drop off in compensation. I also understand that you can't have both, so I'm really just looking to weigh my options. I also want to mention that I find both career paths interesting in their own respect.
I'd really appreciate any insight into the comp and hours for the MM PE, PE at any of the Pensions (specifically CPP, OTPP or HOOPP) and any asset managers (i.e TCAM, Burgundy, Mawer, Fiera, etc).
If you've had experience in both, you should choose what style you prefer as different types of people fit into different types of investing. Don't chase analyst level comp in a career you'd be miserable in.
I should've included this earlier, but I find both interesting in their own way. In terms of the drop off, I know it gets magnified the higher up you go, so I'm more looking for the long term prospects of compensation.
Appreciate it though!
