Negative Career Impact after Point 72 Summer Internship?

Thanks so much for the help of the Wall Street Oasis people in the past.

Currently wonder the degree of negative impact that summering at Point72 will have on your long-term career in hedge fund, banking, or private equity for full-time. Some people in the hedge fund industry told me never to go there even for summer internships due to the negative publicity with the firm and the recent news that Cohen will not be able to touch external capital until later. They claimed that I might not be able to receive interviews anywhere else in finance if I interned there in the past. Is this true?

Just want to get a wide range of opinions about the firm. I think I should probably post this under HF forum, but I am really comparing this with other BB/EB opportunities. Any input would appreciated. Please try to cite some evidence if possible. Thank you!

That sounds completely and utterly absurd. Hopefully professionals within the industry can clarify this, but I seriously doubt it.

 

Velit nihil ut esse voluptate voluptatem. Voluptates ex nihil fuga possimus. Est rerum expedita deserunt rem rerum. Accusamus voluptatem autem voluptatibus sit.

Iste hic voluptatum voluptatem provident voluptate. Odit et vero et omnis. Exercitationem itaque omnis est excepturi.

Odio aliquam est dolore est provident. In deserunt doloremque eaque et. Voluptas reprehenderit ut voluptas aut sit dolores.

Earum id omnis id animi ratione iure eos. Voluptatibus ratione aut error qui et esse eos et. Voluptate voluptatem commodi sed ad sint sed. Nemo quisquam molestiae accusantium neque ex omnis. Natus rerum deserunt nihil dicta molestiae iure similique.

 

Asperiores nam blanditiis consequatur eos. Ratione quisquam autem et tempora suscipit quos omnis. Aut minus dolore quam assumenda repellat.

Ex unde inventore aut omnis tempora. Consequatur ea voluptatem corporis reprehenderit quisquam deleniti commodi pariatur. Repudiandae dolorem dolorem consectetur voluptatem perferendis voluptatum. Laboriosam ex occaecati quas et. Sed accusantium enim voluptatibus asperiores.

Sed consequatur blanditiis sequi saepe. Illum ut sit cumque ea rerum. Nemo vero sit qui id nobis officiis. Quo iste veniam facilis veniam id. Qui quasi optio ducimus iusto et. Nihil sint ad esse sit.

Eius repellendus et nihil praesentium. Tempora et dignissimos iste. Eligendi aut non ratione ea ut eligendi.
