Hey, just curious to gauge everyone's feelings on P72 Academy. Obviously they will lead to different exits and have different work, but curious to hear which people would take and why.

I mean it’s literally a HF role vs working vs sell-side advisory? What’s up this this dumb hypothetical. Do which one YOU want to do.
agreed. I doubt OP even has offers at these firms if asking a question like this
Would only go into IB if it’s a top group at a top bank. Meaning all GS classic groups besides NatRes & RE, JPM HC / M&A, MS M&A / M&C / Menlo
If you're asking this question that means youre incredibly indecisive. The options are so different its like asking MIT vs Brown. Go with your flock at the IB so you can be around other people who dont know what they want to do. Your type wouldn't fit well at a top multi manager hedge fund. Case in point: the comment below me.
MIT vs Brown is a perfect analogy for P72 vs Bulge Bracket IB. Brown is less selective, less of a meritocracy, but has the ivy league stamp that everyone knows. If it's a top group at a top IB, then maybe MIT vs Yale.
Yeah fuck brown. Such a shitty college. Literally go to community college and save yourself the embarrassment and money
I would do the IB one, but I personally don't like investing.
Why did you get into finance if you dont even like the most basic principle of finance… this is what i mean when i say most IB people dont know what the fuck theyre doing with their life. You do know that sellside M&A is advising buyers to invest in entire companies… right???
