Point72**** Details

Hi all,

Rising sophomore at HYPSM very interested in P72. Was curious about compensation,academy structure, internship structure, etc. I heard JH is not the best but would love to know the candid details. Is it 135base then 90K bonus when you graduate? What about 1 year into a pod? Would love clarification . Thanks
