Information on Investment Management at TCW??

Hey guys I was wondering if anyone had an information on TCW (i.e. Compensation, Prestige, Culture, Hours, Etc.) and if they generally recruit undergrads? I just found out I have a pretty strong connection there and am investigating if this is something I should pursue.

I know a guy at TCW, on their derivatives team. Good pay from what I can tell.

But to answer your question, they don't recruit undergrads (at least for his team). They tend to go for credit analysts with 2-3 experience.

 

Outside of rare exceptions I don't believe they generally hire undergrads. I have heard that prestige and compensation are both very good. Great place to work if you can get in

 

I heard things aren't as fun these days at TCW. You can't even use a black 9" dildo as a paper weight anymore or display your porn collection next to pictures of your kids and family.

Under my tutelage, you will grow from boys to men. From men into gladiators. And from gladiators into SWANSONS.
