1. Interested in transactional work, specifically alternative investments. VC, PE, Hedge funds. Don't mind being a generalist.
2. Have ties in both market but ties in Cali are generally more established in their careers. Very tech heavy.
3. Personality wise, liked both firms equally. Cancelled all NYC because I realized it just wasn't me.
4. Not really thinking too much about exit options, but if the time comes it would likely be inhouse at an IM, either PE or VC.
5. Would like to move to Cali at some point.
Some considerations:
1. Liked the general environment in Cal, the energy, and the younger clients. The Facebook culture is very attractive and associates get more responsibility.
2. Boston is a much bigger office and bigger SA class. Requires more specialization. Also has more Band 1 practices in corporate work.
Takes?
