If I could find a girl that works at Q that would fr be my wife
Q obv
Q and it’s not even close
Only do Q if you want to do banking long term. Q exits don’t come close to GS
Edit: sure send the MS, but fact remains Q exits to competitive shops (MF PE, top HF, etc) are many steps below GS
Ability to exit and actual placements are different. Q analysts can get the same exact looks just that many don’t pursue it given its a pay cut to leave Q for PE in most cases
guessing you used to work at GS - which is of course a great accomplishment in and of itself. No one denys that GS has great exits, it's just that no one from Q really desires the traditional exits. Whereas no one at GS actually desires to stay there past the two years or less it takes to leave to PE. A good way to look at it is the interview process. GS has a standard top-tier BB interview, they of course screen harder than say BAML, but Q is like 10 rounds of interviews. They're not a normal IB and you'll work with insanely smart people who are very passionate about tech. Most of GS and Wall Street are just passionate about making money.
If Q gives you an offer, you take it. End of story.
Doubt this is real - a candidate who can get an offer from Q already knows the answer
That's what I actually thought too lol
Q by an insane margin

Qatalyst is a no brainer. I'm guessing you already know this and came for a sanity check but you're right. Have a great time at Qatalyst!
how does one get an offer from Q? genuine question.
Qatalyst but most analysts don't really recruit for the buyside, a lot just stay at Q bc the pay is really good. They'll get the same opportunities as GS TMT but most just choose not to participate.
Are people joking about Q? I can’t tell if these threads are serious
