What Perks Do You Guys Get in your IBD Jobs?
I'm finishing up my summer analyst stint in IBD at my BB bank and I was talking to some of my friends about their summers at their firms and the perks that we'll get as analysts.
My friend told me that at Houlihan Lokey they get Unlimited Metro Card for the mornings, Lunch, Dinner, Phone Bill Paid For, Gym Subsidy, and Cars Home at night. Apparently their meal expense limits is really high too like $40 or something around that. Is this true? Cause that just sounds crazy and I never heard of any IBD shop offering this many perks/benefits.
We don't get anything even close to that at my BB so it seems unfair that they would get all of this.
What kind of perks do you guys get at your IBD shops?
There are no such thing as perks in investment banking. If you call cabs home at 3am, sad soggy in-office seamless meals, and a metro card "perks" then you should reevaluate things
data room vendors will give you free tix to baller events if you work at a large enough bank...
Loyd Blankfein shines my shoes, minimum 2x a week. Senior management policy for grooming the best upcoming BSD.
It's Lloyd....sounds like somebody won't be receiving a FT offer
Holy crap, you're right. I'll omit the 2 years from my resume, because of a typo. Sorry I couldn't be a baller like you guys...Off to find a bartending gig
Thanks for apologizing. Good lluck in your new endeavors.
Oh yeah, the Unlimited Metro Card. Baller.
Oh IB, what have thou become? You had the models and bottles until 2007.
The industry gets less significant by the year.
Never seen such good promotion for HL on this site before anywhere, and I have looked hard for it.

Goddamn you are a whiny little fucking bitch, aren't you?
Man these are some depressing perks.
At Zenefits, we had hella perks. Unlimited PTO. They rented out the entire AMC theatre for premier of Star Wars. Weekly company paid happy hours (up to $100) per person. We had a nap room for if you just wanted to take a nap. Kegs. The most bad ass free food kitchen ever.
That was in SF. We have a no Latex policy in our office. So we just pulled out. Just like all the investors wish they could.
My boss once told me "good job," that was a pretty chill perk.
Perks: Stress knots, weight gain, pale skin, existential crises, life path regrets, feelings of inadequacy, career switching fantasies, reading "I'm OK-You're OK",
One time, after working 40hrs in 2 days, I got a "Thank You" instead of the usual thx. I was so ecstatic that I went and bought some ice cream to celebrate.
I print things at the office for free some times
