Career Resources
Looks like NBA salaries are competitive with Qatalyst
Yet still below the most respected and prestigious EB of all time, FT Partners (or Paradise for short)
Can confirm ($140k as an1 btw)
not to mention, ultimate prestige.
Career mobility is also great I hear.
Plus if you don't want to work, I was talking with the NBA equivalent of a top bucket analyst (think Iverson/Jr.Smith/McGee), and they said if you don't want to practice (complete deliverables) you don't have to. He's retired now, so things might have changed but another young analyst (Simmons/Holgrem/Banchero) said that you can easily sit out playoffs (fire drills) with no repercussions.
This is gold lol
Does anyone have any info on Golden State Warriors as a firm? Specifically as a point guard? Hours, comp, exit opps?
I heard the existing MD is a rainmaker.
Can anyone confirm if the Goldman State Warriors discount is real?
this comment is underrated AF
Currently have a An1 position offer with the Shanghai Sharks on the table. Can someone speak to their culture and possible exit ops to the NBA in 2 years?
Are you Yao Ming
No fam, Jimmer Fredette
It's possible, but you would be looking at G-League opportunities (Regional Boutiques)
WLB is great, my buddy Jimmy F. is over there and he's doing great.
Great for cross border M&A
Networking extensively with him and getting intros to people @ the Houston Rockets. Do you believe I have a good shot / is there a possibility I could lateral?
Hey, is nba recruiting heavier on behaviorals or technicals? I think I have my technicals down by going thru MJ career highlights 23 times. Any advice on networking? Ppl there seem hard to reach. Been DMing 300+ ppl, even including their wives& secret links but had no success so far. Am i screwed?
If you don't go to a target school you're pretty fucked
Tier 1: Duke
Tier 2: Kentucky, Kansas
As a SWE at a fintech in NYC, it's been an extremely rough time for me. I can barely afford clothes, rent, or even food. I wish I had pursued literally any other career, I would even be down to be a retail worker. Didn't realize how puny the salaries were in this field, even after I had to go through such an incredibly grueling interview process :(.
can't tell if this is serious among the sea of joke/banter comments
It is. He recently said he was moving to NYC previously.
Yeah I make 40k base with a 3k bonus depending on performance /s
Professional sports suck compared to collecting an inheritance if you're a trust-fund child. Inheritances can range all the way up to the billions with zero hours of work required. That's like 10x more than professional athletes make for way less hours.
Dividends on the inheritance can bring in a recurring 3-10% annually immediately lol. I've also heard marrying rich can pay even more.
To continue the trend, I expect your follow-up post: “The NBA sucks compared to inheritances if you have wealthy parents”
My grandpa always said that you can make more in 10 minutes marrying someone than you can in a lifetime of working
If I get staffed with Kyrie Irving one more fucking time I'm quitting, fuck the money.
Very topical. KD to Heat or Suns IMO. Deal done by next week. Sellside kickoff today.
KD to the Suns? Clearly your MD is pitching for the sake of pitching. No way that happens.
lmfao this shit fucking killed me.
$1.2m first-year NBA comp is nothing compared to ten weeks as an intern at Ducera
NBA players are healthy and get chicks unlike Ducera workers.
Yeah but in SWE, you have to potential to work with hot (and tanned) women from Berkeley, Stanford and USC, while in the NBA, you'd be working with big black sweaty men, which seems gay to me.
lol what Berkeley? I can see USC and maybe Stanford though.
Ok yeah UCLA or whatever college that has hot girls and established SWE pipelines
In both NBA and IB, GS tops the league table
This is pure cope, just admit SWE is better IB and move on. I'm in IBD myself, at an EB you guys probably drool over, and I wish I did SWE instead (studied STEM at an Ivy). Many of my friends are making VP-level salaries on 30-40 hrs a week only a few years out of college. A buddy from HS made 500k last year--3 years out of college--working 40 hrs a week, and this was as a SWE at a HFT shop, so no startup paper money BS. The future is in tech and tech-adjacent fields, not in formatting powerpoints.
Pointing at SWE HFT salaries is a poor comparison of SWE vs IB
