Leave IB for Galaxy

Would it be wild to recruit full time for galaxy ventures after my summer internship. I’m at a top MM bank, would leaving to do something at galaxy (research analyst, prop trading, etc.) be a big prestige drop off? I can’t really tell what the perception is on Galaxy but when I went to their LinkedIn they seem to mostly take top target kids.

You’re at a top mm bank obviously you got nothing going for you in finance so take galaxy and not look back man. Let’s be real you will not get mfpe or any tiger cubs or anything really game changing in finance. So take galaxy
