Serious Would You Rather
Would you rather retain all the prestige of your current high finance job but take a 15% haircut on comp (carries over as you progress, also scales with your future comp), or lose all prestige (women magically equate you with a construction worker, janitor, accountant, RBC kid, garbage man, everybody thinks you're a shitty blue collar/back office guy), but keep current comp?
If you're in an unprestigious industry (back office, tech, blue collar, lowly white collar), how big of a % paycut would you take to instantly get all the benefits of PE MF/EB IBD level prestige?
Note: Your newfound prestige or lack of prestige does not affect future employers. In essence, you won't get fucked over for PE recruiting/MBA admissions (1st question) but you can't lateral from Big 4 middle office to MM IBD with your magical new prestige (2nd question).
This level of autism is not going to attract women regardless of where you work btw
Not a single person outside of IB or PE… give a single FUCK about prestige

There's a huge difference between blue collar and back office. Telling a random person you work at Goldman Sachs, even if it's the back office, is going to sound much more prestigious than saying you're a factory worker.
Serious question, do these college kids really think women give a crap what bank you work at? Like where is this information coming from?
I don’t understand how someone can be college educated and truly believe that a well adjusted woman cares if you work at Goldman or Baird.
Then again, I imagine the non-virgins are too busy having sex than to post jackass questions. So we have some self selection bias going on here.
Actually I've seen women ding my mates for not working in an approved list of "suitable boyfriend banks", including CVP, PJT, Rothschild and LAZ.
