Hahahaha good-ness… that is tough. Also, major courage for you to post this, would be pretty easy to trace back to what firm ur at.
Why do you care weirdo?
What's their fund performance like?
Are you a woman?
Sounds like it
“Most toxic literally ever” sheesh go touch some grass.
Is the VP hot?
Key q is where does she rank on a scale of 1 to 10 in terms of hotness. Can’t answer without this information.
Well, at least one of them got a 'yes' without a pitch deck involved
I am familiar with the situation and people - I’d reserve judgement until you know them personally. This isn’t the scandal you’re making it out to be - it makes sense for people who spend a lot of time together to end up together, and they have a healthy relationship where the female VP has a very strong presence.
This is incredibly common - maybe not the supervisor part, that's not great, but it's very common for people to date within a firm or even group
Great story simp
I don’t think you are overreacting and have good reason to be concerned. I think where it lands ultimately is driven by whether they continue to work together on the same deals with alternative projects that could otherwise separate them. It sounds like they won’t and in that case it seems okay. If one gets promoted, I’m not sure how it’d look then though. In the case of my employer, they understand that sometimes relationships emerge from a work environment and they receive it as okay.
What’s not okay is if one is a superior to one another. We are large, so they will separate these people from working on the same team. I presume the size of your fund does not allow for this or is otherwise of a size where there is limited workstreams.
It might be that there’s discussions internally about this that include them, which hasn’t been broadcasted. A concern I would have is if I was a near peer to the woman would I be at a major disadvantage due to the biases of her quasi superior fiancé as well as the “stacked household” they live in.
Dude people used to get married from work relationships literally all the time calm down Lmao
Perhaps they took 'engaging with your team' a bit too literally
It doesn't matter. Very common. Perhaps less in IB, but in most sectors (healthcare, law, sales, retail etc) it's quite normal.
fucking braindead liberal
Bro is probably worried cause his crush added “Incoming Private Equity Analyst at …” to her LinkedIn bio
Key question is are there any other hotties available at your shop? That’s a good example of second order thinking like Charlie Munger talks about. Get after it son
Pretty sure OP is a brainwashed lib chick
Don’t be mad I wifed that up. Haters gonna hate.
Good shit king, almost time to exit to stay at home dad - the ultimate opp
tl'dr; "Crazy women / Beta guy - slave to their job - goes nuts witnessing that 2 mature people, able to set boundaries, love each other and didn't gave a fuck about the unwritten bullshit professional rules built by Corporate America"
You think the engagement is shocking? Wait until you see the wedding invite – it's basically a quarterly report
