Smaller firm like CDR…D tier ragebait
my knowledge is very limited but i see ppl working there coming from top IB firms and this was just a firm i heard of today
Do you like workouts?
yeah do you?
CDR is a large fund size firm, just not as multistrat and AUM-machine as the corporates
CDR pays very close to top of street. Higher than most corporates except Apollo
Do you know how much? Thank you!
1 million dollars cash.
why does Apollo pay so much
30 seconds of research would show you it’s because it’s horrendous to work there.
There is no free lunch in high finance.
Lol. CD&R pays top of street you fucking virgin
sorry thanks im literally a curious highschooler who just committed to college
Don't take it too personally, a lot of folks (myself included at times) get prickly over simple questions on this forum. It's good you're taking an interest so early! But try to google questions this basic before posting them if you don't want these types of replies.
don’t u have SATs to be studying for?
