Sure! But it depends on what you want.
You need to think about where you want to take your career. What do you enjoy doing? What are you good at? Where do you see yourself in 5-10 years?
Only you can decide whether this is a good exit for you.
Yes, if that's what you want to do, there is a good fit and it lines up with your career aspirations, values & risk profile.
No, if you end up there just because its a popular path or others are going there.
Check out this Q&A thread for plenty of detailed discussion on related question:
Yes, depending on what you want to do, what the PE firm is, their project and their portfolio.
But the real question is whether it is a good opportunity for YOU.
Hi there,
Exits depend on your career goals.
You don't really have ‘good’ exits just on their own.
You need to think where you'd want to be in 10y from now and whether this exit is bringing you closer to that or not.
Best,
Cristian
Hi!
It is a great exit opportunity!
How do you feel about it?

Consulting (sell-side) to PE (buy-side) is a very well known path.
I would recommend to evaluate the pros and cons before making the decision.
You should try to find former consultants who are now in PE and reach out to them to understand their experience.
