Thought I'd resurrect this moderately old thread for a quick update/question for anyone interested.

So, from speaking with a few people at my firm, Big 4 Audit ----> Valuation is doable but uncommon (less so pre-recession); Networking + good reviews+ CFA is probably a good bet.


Any valuation guys want to weigh in on exit opportunities, compensation, satisfaction with work?


I'm actually pretty interested in regards to compensation outside the Big 4 (apparently better than audit, but not awesome). If one were to work at a P/E firm or Boutique IB for instance, how good/bad is the compensation? How about the exposure to clients? Again, I'm coming from a back office perspective, so I'm not expecting BB IB money here. Middle office is fine with me, but front office would be nice.

Edit: twice for spelling
