I noticed a few of the Analysts at my bank jumping ship after one year. Some of them left our top group to hedge funds, MM PE and one to an internal PE fund. Do you think that would burn bridges or if an opportunity presents itself that I'm happy with do you think it is ok to leave early?
I don't think it burn bridges at all. Management should fully be aware of what the HF's and PE firms are doing. The trend of 1st and 2nd year analysts leaving for better opportunities will continue to happen no matter what. As long as you leave with dignity and class, there shouldn't be much of a problem.
The only issue I see in leaving early is having to give back a portion of your bonus and not getting the 2-year completion bonus as well.
