Are you trolling? This is just a series of buzzwords.

1.) Extremely hard to transition from MBB or I-Banking into PE after b-school. Very rare. Unless you have prior PE experience, it's going to be hard.

2.) PE is not where I'd want to stake my claim for the next decade of a career. Hundreds of zombie firms, too much capital chasing too few deals, and plenty of mediocrity around. Yes there are still some good firms that will do well, but The Party is largely over.

3.) Consulting is retarded and likely going to get worse because of AI. Banking is better because you can at least build a "franchise" within a firm in any number of lines of business. Banks want people who can make money and there are a number of ways to do so.

My advice to anyone thinking about an MBA at this point is to consider pursuing a career outside of professional services. There are way too many people in IBD / PE / Management Consulting and the juice is largely squeezed. It's an ultra competitive nightmare for most. It pays well, but is limiting in the long run for most talented people at this point.

Better to try and join a corporate in an industry you find interesting when you can build a network and expertise, as well as a reputation. And then that will open doors for you down the line (mgmt, the ability to build a new business in a new field, etc.)
