P72 vs Surveyor

Could anyone detail differences between P72 and Surveyor at the analyst level? Am mostly interested in 1) ability to retain an analyst seat if your PM is let go (i.e. what’s reasonable expectation for analyst tenure), 2) comp expectations (base and bonus), 3) promotion trajectory (to PM at p72, to analyst and/or PM at Surveyor), and 4) separately but tied to the above questions - how is reputation on the street? Seems like there have been some changes in last couple of years with the new head of Surveyor attempting to implement a more Global Equities-like approach (don’t know if this is just sales pitch) and P72 getting best talent poached by Citadel


Ignore anon title - have a couple of years on buyside as generalist


 

As in all of these types of questions, it matters a lot more who the PM you go work for is than whether it's P72 or Surveyor. They're both top caliber funds. I would always take 20% lower pay working for a great PM than working for an untested, mediocre PM at 100% pay. The amount you learn, the staying power of the pod, etc, is worth millions.
