Least Woke BB/EBs
Wanna know the ones where I have at least a little leeway and won’t get fired if the word retard or sperg slips while I’m working. Also don’t wanna work alongside the woke mind virus geed types. What are the least woke BB/EBs or least woke groups lmao?
Morgan Stanley because of Christian roots
can confirm, was a minority and am now a tall white christian male
based MS converting minorities into tall white christian males
Literally every bank. Once you’re past the veil of 6 hour long diversity training views mandated by HR, you realize everyone is still a relatively conservative chad.
No you’re not gonna get away with dropping the R word around anywhere because generally speaking - well educated people (who banks essentially screen for) think it’s ignorant. However I feel most people at the junior level still lean fratty and conservative
Dope…also the r word thing isn’t an education thing it’s a northeast and CA thing. It’s based on regional culture not education. Just based on if u grow up around that shit ig.
No it’s not a regional north east or California thing. You’re an idiot for saying that😂
Not a regional thing, I'm from the Midwest and call people retards all the time. For example, if you say "r word" instead of "retard", then you are retarded.
only zoomers think "the R word" is a thing and most of the associates+ in my group say it with some frequency. If you think it's "ignorant" you've either been indoctrinated and didn't question it, or you're a pearl clutching retard
Be careful what you wish for. Everyone hates the woke virus until it gives them a protected Saturday or better junior banker conditions.
Hating whatever is 'woke' at the time until it benefits you is the story of the past 70 years. Odds are if you care about this sht you will be back here in 12 months complaining about how your MD 'doesn't care about your mental health,' lol.
Yes, people in banking are more conservative than most professionals. However, they are still young, well educated and probably come from an affluent background. Meaning that you're not going to be able to get away with ranting about drag queen story hour or whatever dumb culture war is in the news at the time.
Lol at thinking “woke” banks actually enforce protected Saturdays or have lighter hours. All of the virtue signaling is smoke and mirrors that doesn’t apply on the job.
If you're a prospect deciding where you want to work (as if it's that simple) based on whether or not you can freely say retard, you're a retard.
There is nothing wrong with saying those words when you don't mean harmful intent, but you're working in a professional setting either way. Act like a professional or you get fired. That's how every bank works. You won't find anything different.
Very team dependent. My team (MD included) swear all the time and aren't even remotely PC around each other, but around clients is another story depending on the relationship.
In a TMT BB group and I would say 70% of them are leftists. 30%, which includes myself, are conservative/libertarian. One of the interns and I bool around and talk politics sometimes and just roast leftist ideology. We say retard a lot. Even one of the leftist interns doesn't really say anything or get mad when we say retard. They just laugh. Although maybe I might be canceled and not get a return offer if they snitched on me behind my back. However, our manager is pretty right leaning and not PC, despite being a woman.
What is this absurd definition of a leftist? If you mean corporate Democrats who aren’t racist, homophobic or transphobic, ok fine, but unless people think the banks should have been nationalised in 2008 and their shareholders wiped out and bankers are a bunch of overpaid assholes who create no societal value, they’re not leftists.
Who the fk cares about “wokeness”. You’re in finance to make money, not to be concerned about being surrounded by a bunch of wokees
Agreed. A large reason banking and finance was so glamourous to most of us growing up is because of the insane amount of money people can make starting from as early as your early 20s + the lifestyle that was centered around being surrounded by a highly-educated, motivated and polished group of individuals who were nonetheless still all a bunch of complete degenerates.
