FTP vs Gugg?
Not trying to be a dickwad, but genuinely wondering what people thought of these two for SA. I’m pretty interested in tech (like 9/10) and fairly interested in fintech (like 7/10). Leaning towards Gugg, but the base pay is quite a bit higher at FT partners. Also hoping to snag a return offer and maybe just stay at my 23 summer firm for full time, so curious what total comp and culture look like? Thanks!
With FTP you’re guaranteed to work in tech and you can always lateral after gaining experience. At gugg you might be placed into a group you don’t like
Both really good firms. Lean FTP for guaranteed tech placement.
Is this a joke? No disrespect to FTP but these firms are absolutely on different tiers. Unless you really really want to do Fintech, it’s Gugg easily. The FTP hype is getting a little ridiculous. The prospects need to go home. After bonuses, I bet the comp difference will be marginal if at all
This is so delusional. Guggenheim.
Yes, its not like its hard to lateral to another industry after your summer internship or even a 1st year analyst. Your industry specific technical skills are pretty weak and prospective banks won't really care (I went from a MM industrials group to a BB tech/fintech group, nobody cared which industry I came from). FTP M&A is weak, their recrutier sent me their top deals last year as part of their linkedin message and 2 of them are subpar SPACs (Payoneer and MoneyLion). MoneyLion is currently trading at $1.20 a share lol (down 90%+). Thier Bill.com / Divvy deal was legit though. Otherwise they do a lot of PP deals and pitching.
Next question on the docket. Honda Civic with 700 horsepower or Ferrari LaFerrai.
Guggenheim is hardly a Ferrari...
And FTP is an 86’ Ford Taurus at best...
Metaphors are relative in comparison…
Gugg also has a history of paying pretty high
Guggenheim unless you’re really into fintech
Guggenheim.
Guggenheim. FTP will crush your soul
I'm half convinced FTP people are making these threads just to boost their reputation
I could see both ways. Even making the comparison is a ridiculous premise and pretending there’s a debate definitely helps FTP.
But also, Gugg’s been getting shit on over here vs LAZ/EVRPJT/whatever, so maybe it’s a Gugg analyst tryna reverse psychology an easy W.
