LMM PE >>>>>>>> Boutique IBD
Tiger cubs/top quant funds are more prestigious than both
Quants aren’t as prestigious because the job requires mathematical knowledge. It’s more prestigious to succeed through politicking your way to partner status/ becoming MD and maintaining relationships with high level clients
Its way more prestigious to be insanely successful with no real skills like coding or math
