SF BB Associate is an absolute chiller

Was at an OCR event at Berkeley yesterday and chatted with a BB (BOFA/Barclays/Citi) Associate in the SF office. Bro was such a chiller - we were joking about how MBA associates (which he was) don’t know shit and he pointed at an analyst at another firm and joked “that mf don’t know more than me” He then started shit talking Goldman about how they work more hours for worse deals. At first I wasn’t sold on IB but the people are funny as fuck.
