I got a "pls fix" at 3 am
Odds you respond "no" to the "pls fix"
The greatest perk for an intern is the prospect of a return offer
CS asked us for our “sweater & vest sizes” and mentioned they’d be sending us packages so we’ll see
I love that I got monkey shit for being “inaccurate” as if I didn’t fill out a survey yesterday indicating I’d like a women’s medium, please
Patagucci vests returning, nature is healing
Yerrrr S&T interns about to be fly as hell with this CS merch
global markets interns.....lookin strapped
Anxiety
UBS sent a duffle bag
Who cares no one will be able to flex on Zoomuniversity next year.
*Zoomversity pls fix thx
BofA sent nothing - also no overtime for IBD.
Anything above 60 hours/week will be escalated to senior management. If you think I'm lying, just try putting in 70 hours this week, and we'll go from there.
Having an internship
How the hell is a company issued laptop a 'perk'? Lot of you are acting as if it's something nice they're doing for us, you're literally going to just be working on it before you return it. People out of their minds thinking they get to keep the laptops.
Considering most firms aren't giving laptops, I'm pretty grateful mine gave me a full setup (laptop + dock + monitor) even if it's only for the summer. Lots of people have shitty laptops that won't be able to run a heavy Excel spreadsheet and other programs at the same time.
You won't be doing any work locally on your personal computer. The InfoSec and compliance teams would never allow that. Your personal computer only needs to be able to run a lightweight remote desktop program so you can do the work on firm systems (where the heavy lifting will actually be done.)
My bank gave the interns bank-branded underwear, shirts, socks, phone chargers, bar soaps, vests, and mugs.
I wear the underwear every day to sleep.
woah nice! you get to sleep?
At a top BB and got a bank branded pocket pussy. Think we have to return it after the summer though.
Even the women?
Nah brother they got some branded dildorooskis
MS nyc sent wireless earphones, phone stand, t-shirt, 3/4 zip pullover, office supplies, mousepad, Scarborough & Tweed duffle bag, and some kind of jigsaw puzzle
HSBC sent backpack with small stuff (pens water bottle sanitizer etc.) as well as laptop and headset
Honestly having a SA stint during these times is a perk in and of itself
Just got a Rolex in the mail from my BB... awesome swag!
Haven't gotten any gear from Citi yet but they did send interns a pretty sweet online exam
bruh shut up Citi gave u FT offers
I got nothing becuase I am unemployed
