Controversial

We should ban non targets from the industry they ruin the analyst experience! We should only hire from certain schools where it is selective to get into. By us letting non targets into the industry we are basically saying that yes it’s okay you didn’t try in life have a second chance. 

 

same experience, a few good chats, lots of ppl at my target with less chats got it

I just know PJT analysts are having such a good laugh at this thread

 

Well they definitely had a great laugh at the thread last night

 

Ppl really out here stressing about a happy holidays email LOL

 

Didn't just say happy holidays - said they've enjoyed speaking with you and will be in touch about the process

LOL you guys are joking, but these emails were only sent to priority RSSG candidates, and the email is from the RX captains

 

Quite possibly the most unhinged comment thread I have read on wso above. Seems PJT’s appeal to nerds has gone full swing to Reddit-native incels. That wasn’t even Reddit esque tbh that was full blown 4chan

Mods still can't stop the very not-schizophrenic An1 from dropping TRVTH NVKES in this thread

 

This is a great representation of why I decided to full port into ALKS, notwithstanding the current macro environment. Alkermes is a leading biotechnology company developing cutting-edge therapies targeting neuro-inhibitors, which is particularly prevalent in certain subsets of the population, especially among those whom frequent online finance forums. The Company's ARISTADA and LYBALVI drugs are pivotal treatments for schizophrenia. Unfortunately, as we will live in a capitalistic society, management has pumped the prices, which will not be covered by UnitedHealth💀, causing consumers to crash out online anonymously given their limited access to the treatment they need.
