Hours for Fido/TROW/Capital Equity Team Internships?
Getting ready to start an internship at one of the above AM firms this June, and was wondering if anyone could comment on how hours are for those firms as an UG Intern in the summer. No one from my school has recently gone to them, so I don't really know what the expectations are for interns, or how hard people at the office work. As well, on other threads here, I've seen quite a variation (anywhere from 8AM-5PM to 7AM-9PM). Would appreciate any knowledge you guys could share!
Wanted to quickly bump this - would additionally be interested in additional insight into culture. I've spoken to a few people on this, but they aren't people I know all that well, so honest insights would be appreciated.
Hours should be pretty pedestrian compared to your friends doing banking. You'll likely want to be in a bit later than most of the team, but that should not be hard especially in the summer months lol. If you're headed to Capital in LA, I'd just be prepared to wake up pretty early, probably looking at 5:30/6am-5pm most days, with some later evenings during earnings. TROW and Fido should be closer to 8am-6/7pm. Really depends on if you get paired with a hard working analyst/sector team or a group that wants to be on the golf course all summer... Congrats!
Check out YouTube, there was a video of some intern walking through his typical day in Boston at Fido. Believe his hours were: 8-7?
Would anyone be able to comment on the culture at BlackRock?
SA at one of these firms this summer, 8-5
This was yrs ago so maybe out of date but heard that Fido equity interns pulled pretty long hours for asset mgmt (maybe 7-9) during internship. Given three stocks to work on over the course of the internship and (at least at the time) the culture was fairly political so interns would be well-served spending a decent chunk of the day networking/developing relationships internally, which meant that a good chunk of the actual work on stocks (modeling, reading transcripts, etc) would be done in the evening
