Is my boyfriend lying???

Hi everyone! I know this seems like an odd post but I wanted to ask the experts. So my bf was a summer analyst at a bank (hint: Credit Suisse) and received a return offer. He told me that they also offered him a fast track program so that he would make VP in 5 or so years I believe?? A little back story, he has a history of lying or twisting the truth and I honestly just don’t know if I can trust him on this. Is this actually something they offer summer analysts before they’ve even started full time? Thanks so much.

this doesn’t seem like a thing but I have no idea. more importantly tho, why would your boyfriend possibly be lying about this?

 

They don't offer this to interns, but could see how he arrived at this on his own

There's a street trend with "fast track" promotion between analyst and associate- typically 3 years, most banks now promote after 2 years. I'm sure his staffers were promoting this as banks are desperate to keep A2As, but associate to VP is a long and treacherous path of its own

You could hit VP in 5-6 years as a superstar but this isn't some guaranteed program CS offers

I also just wanted to add that he made it seem like it was very formal and that he was speaking to all of the MDs to try to convince him to accept the offer...?
