Leaving private equity after 6 months

大家好,我正在考虑将目前的角色留在坚实的中间市场PEfund for a startup gig after about 6 months into my first year as an Associate. Pretty unprecedented at my firm to be leaving this soon, so would love any advice on how to do this as gracefully as possible.

Safe to say bridges will be burned, but the people here are generally nice and I hope I can salvage some relationships for the longer term. Appreciate any thoughts!

bluesolocup, 你怎么看?以下评论:

当前的工资 +奖金为$ 250K +,夏季奖金周期为奖金。

For the startup gig, which fell into my lap somewhat unexpectedly, cash pay would be close to $200K with about 150% of that in equity. The timing consideration here is that the startup is looking to raise in January, which would be expected to more than 3x my equity immediately (I'd be getting in at the lower valuation).

您的奖金周期是十二月吗?检查您的合同中是否有回扣。

I'd just be graceful and say you've enjoyed working there but have an opportunity you simply can't turn down, hope to stay in touch, etc.

Make sure the startup gig is THE one both in comp, role, outlook etc. It will be very challenging for you to get back intoPE如果失败了,那么机会最好简单出色。

一些使它变得更容易的一般想法:

1)首先去找您小组的员工 /负责人 - 这样的谣言比病毒更快,您不希望他们从大三

2)继续正常运作,即使您向任何人透露新闻直到最后一天,我什至会继续记录电话 - 人们会注意到这一点,并为此表示感谢

3)即使他们不这样做 - 它完全在他们身上。每当您打破新闻时,它们可能会做出很好的反应,粗略地或震惊或其他任何事情 - 其中任何一个都是有效的,但这完全是有效的,没有什么应该让您感到好事或不好。他们每个人都在寻找自己,以及对他们的职业生涯最有利的东西,因此请以任何戏剧性的反应作为不成熟的标志,不要让它咬你

4)对您离开的原因诚实,他们是有效的,人们会欣赏透明度。

5) If you have any real connections in it then they will be happy for you otherwise they're either trash people to start with or you didnt get to build any real bridges to burn so dont worry about it

不知道,OP要求提供有关如何在6个月后打破新闻的建议,这就是我的看法,假设做出了决定。如果他去HSW并想回到该行业,那么已经有很多资金,并且以这种荒谬的速度,在4年内将有更多资金曲奇切器KKR,BX, TPG, etc

给n he wants to leavePE6个月后,我猜他可能不想回到PE. Preserving optionality is generally a good thing, but if he's done 2 years inIB还有几个月PE, then chances are that this just isn't the right fit.
