GS developer vs Barclays Capital quant
I have an offer from GS to join them as a developer and an offer from Barclays capital to join them as a quant. I prefer to be a quant than a developer, but Goldman looks like a better place to be. Do you guys think that it's possible to make the transition from developer to quant within GS? Any advice on which offer to take?
Thanks.
Definitely quant - no questions asked. Moving firms is much easier than moving roles.
I agree, barcap without a doubt, plus its not ibd so the difference between gs and barcap in terms of "prestige" is not that important imo...
Fantastic, thanks for your comments. I did think Barcap quant was the better choice because of the reasons you guys have posted above, but GS has a strong brand and generates unnecessary doubts.
By the way, corto maltese, what is "ibd"?

I thought quants were smart...
