Barclays West Coast Tech in 2024/2025
Hey all, recruiting for SA 2026 and wondering how this office is. Talked to a few analysts who have sold it well but have been reading somewhat the opposite on here. I'm looking to do Tech PE (agnostic on fund size, focus on career development/ culture after IB) long-term and ideally want to optimize for that.
Based on the most helpful WSO content, here are some insights regarding Barclays and its various programs:
Barclays SA Programs:
Career Advancement Opportunities:
Professional Growth Opportunities:
Training Programs:
For your specific interest in Tech PE and career development post-IB, it would be beneficial to consider the training programs and career advancement opportunities provided by Barclays. The rankings and satisfaction scores can also give you an idea of the firm's reputation and employee satisfaction, which are crucial for long-term career development.

One of my buddies works there rn. Have heard great things from him. Their whole analyst class gets great PE looks rn at most UMM/MFs. I think they made some good hires to replace the old seniors that left to UBS so things have picked up a lot apparently.
If your buddy happens to be you just say that bro but appreciate the response nonetheless
Nah it’s deadass one of my closest friends so I hear all about things from him. I’m at a boutique rn
