Why do people here hate FIG

Hi hello,

So I’m a new intern in a French bank in the FIG M&A team, I actually like the deals and the industry especially market infrastructure, but I’ve seen a lot of FIG hate in here and was wondering why, will I see when I’ll actually be an analyst or is it a running joke

Thanks friends
