Hey friends, I have a couple of short questions for you. A bit of context first:
I'm joining an East Asian MBB office, approx. 50% of U.S. pay pre- & 60% post-tax. I think most of my projects will be localized, but will be serving many US-based PE firms.
- Is the prestige of my office lower than the U.S. offices?
- Do I have fewer exit opportunities?
- Should I aim to transfer to the U.S. to maximize exit opps? And how do I best do that?
- I'm also thinking of transferring to an office in Sub-Saharan Africa: will that limit my future exit opportunities?
- Also, why do East Asian & many European offices have much lower wages than the U.S. offices?
Thanks a million and please don't spill a lot of ink for these small questions!
