毫米IBvs. Big 4 Infrastructure

Hey everyone, I've been a long-time lurker ofWSOand finally mustered the courage to start my own thread. Fresh grad from Australia, don't have a great GPA (we go by % and I'm sitting at high 70%), but currently returned home to Malaysia to begin my career. Have always aimed forBBIBs在新加坡和澳大利亚,但在我倒数第二年无法获得暑期实习。鉴于我的处境,我最近才克服对4S的污名(从未喜欢过审核),并开始认真考虑将它们作为替代方案。

I've been offered a stint with a Big 4 Infrastructure team in Kuala Lumpur (KL) that I'm due to start with middle of this month. After interviewing with some directors of the division, the gist of the work sounded very much like consulting, except focused on the power, utilities and infrastructure industries. I was also promised opportunities to travel around Southeast Asia. Other interesting things are that this division is relatively new, has a small team, and is headed by the team in KL.

On the other hand, I have a very strong chance at securing anIBposition with a local毫米IB

So here lies the dilemma: whilst I have been aiming for anIB整个大学学位的工作,我担心我将在本地接触的交易/交易量毫米bank. As of now, the Malaysian economy ain't doing too well either, which doesn't help. Right now, all I care about is learning as much as I can with any firm. Salary at the毫米should slightly exceed the Big 4 but in the grand scheme of things, my starting salary isn't the biggest concern to me. If it helps at all, my 10-year plan is to end up in private equity across the bridge in Singapore, after completing myMBA

Which job will teach me the most stuff?
Which job will teach me the right skills for PE?
您会选择哪个工作?

做一些挖掘后,来我的信息ntion that there isn't too much information on the Big 4 Infrastructure departments on the forum (or online for that matter). If there's anyone working in an Infrastructure division at a Big 4 or other boutique firms, I'd love to hear about your experience. Thanks for reading!

TL;DR - want to end up inPEeventually, which do I pick now?
基础架构:听起来像咨询工作,承诺有很多旅行和面对OPP的客户,有潜力的鸽子孔,什么是退出OPPS?
毫米IB: weak Malaysian economy, not sure how robust deal activity will be, worried about not getting enough exposure.

My personal opinion:

Big 4: Sounds like a good experience, lean team so you'll gain more exposure to all facets of the job, the potential to travel and gain insight into different economies. Keep in mind, a LOT of people who work inIB来自四大曲目。你总是可以离开,sc起你的MBA, and then recruit forBBs/PE那样。

毫米IB: sounds like an overall shitty experience, if the deal flow is slow you run the risk of having minimal experience to put on your resume, which hurts you for buy side recruiting. I don't know the毫米但是,在这里有问题,但是他们如何招募。

You said you want to learn as much as possible, and in my opinion the Big 4 opportunity seems like a more valuable opportunity from a learning perspective, but take that with a grain of salt.

感谢您的意见。现在,我目前与您坐在同一条船上:大4号路线听起来确实是两者中更有前途的选择。

I recently had a chat with a family member who went theBBIB>PEroute, and was told that he personally preferred to work with staff who came from anIBbackground (vs. consultants). Generally felt like they had more technical knowhow to handleLBOsand all that. However low deal volume is still the biggest deal breaker here for me.
