What is GS TMT/FIG actually like? I’m realizing I don’t actually know much about what I’ve signed up for.. hours, culture, deal flow, PE exit opps, non-PE exit opps…

No lol
Diversity*?
Not diverse either but I’ll take it as a compliment…
So no nepo, no diversity, and you didn't get your question above answered on networking calls? Checks out
To be fair, asking analysts what the hours and exits opps in a group are like would make for an awful coffee chat
FIG culture varies by vertical. FIG/TMT is quite a vague comparison lol
Any insight on TMT?
If you're not a nepo kid, then you're gonna get crushed. Have had several friends from my non-target get into GS as A&As and they do all the work while most of the nepo kids just chill.
Accurate at non GS BB as well.
If it's TMT, then experience/exits varies by SF vs NY. Correct me if I'm wrong, but SF has better deal flow but NY has better exits. Can someone elaborate?
I'll also be in FIG this summer and can't tell what i am in for
