SA: Goldman TMT vs Blackstone PE vs Silver Lake PE

Hey guys, deciding between Goldman TMT and Blackstone PE for next summer while also waiting for Silver Lake PE to start recruiting. I'm most interested in tech investing long-term but also want training from banking as well as general skillset/name brand if I decide to exit banking. Always to hear about Blackstone and Silver Lake's training programs and return rates. Should I take the PE offer or wait to recruit FT or on-cycle (so that I don't risk losing return offer)?

 

lmaooooooo yeah bx wrapped up their investing group stuff 2-3 weeks ago. Congrats on GS TMT!
