CS just went Fully Virtual

so stupid

Credit Suisse

Sure... but you are deprived of the opportunity to actually see what you're getting yourself into, meet the people you work with, really develop relationships, and decide on whether or not it's for you. It's great if you want to jerk your meat but definitively stunts your growth and development. 

As someone who interned virtually last summer, enjoy it. 

You save so much money from not paying NYC rent (let alone new clothes for the office, food/alcohol/cover when going out in the city, etc.).

If you have nothing to do, you can nap, go outside, workout, jerk it, literally whatever you want that you normally cannot do in the office.

You can wake up 5 minutes before your first meeting and wear your boxers during the call. You can be 4'10" or socially awkward and nobody will be able to tell since you're remote. You present your final project on Zoom (where you can reference notes) instead of in-person to your group heads.

Were you given real work during your SA stint?

Has the HR in UK said anything about virtual or online? Interning at another bank in Canary Wharf and maybe they'll all follow each other's leads
