Food at Morgan Stanley?
What are the meal benefits at Morgan Stanley? (specifically for GCM, although I would assume it's the same as IB)
Do you get free/paid-for lunch, dinner, etc. If so, how much? How about an uber back to your apartment in the evening if you stay late?
I'm planning on accepting an offer to MS GCM, but I would like to know about the food situation, and I feel a little silly asking HR about that. Yes, though, this is a serious question.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
It's gonna be hardtack and gruel for you, landlubber
IB gets Nobu catering, think GCM gets taco bell coupons on fridays
Oh geez, I thought it was fairly normal practice for the bank to give like $30 at least for dinner if you stayed past a certain time.
gosh, what is your alternative offering from a food POV?
Well, I've thought about culinary school :).
But having access to food is actually a large component of work/life balance for me - I spent some of my childhood on the streets essentially starving, and while I can confidently make decisions involving large amounts of money, work 70+ hours a week, and give important presentations, feeling like I don't have readily accessible food is a major stressor that will reduce me to a nervous wreck.
Looking around my room right now, I have food hidden in multiple spots because I'm chronically afraid of not having food and people stealing my food. But hey, I don't panic when the market crashes, and I'm able to keep a relatively calm head after working for 30 hours, so for some entirely illogical reason, GS offering free ice cream is a convincing benefit, despite the fact that it really shouldn't matter when you make six figures.
So, as I said, it's a little embarrassing that I care about this, but it's a real question.
You´re a king for admitting your shortcomings and rising up from your shitty childhood. Nothing but props to you, my man.
GCM receives the same benefits as IBD, $35 nightly seamless / Uber eats, cars after 9pm, Uber black after 11pm
Thank you! That's really helpful. What do you mean by "cars after 9 PM," though?
