What happens after you land PE offer ?
Hey everyone,
Just had a random thought. Since everyone discusses how on cycle is getting earlier and earlier, what happens to your effort at work once you land the offer? I assume you aren’t going to be slacking, but do people still go above and beyond to succeed at work?
I’m in consulting and currently busting my ass to go above and beyond than what I am expected to do. Some of my peers just do what is expected which would lead them to the meets expectation ratings which is technically all that is really needed.
So if PE recruitment is almost 1-1.5 years before the job starts, what happens to people’s work ethic following accepting an offer?
I’ve seen two types of people:
They recruited for PE because “that’s what you do” on the track and they’ll later gun for bschool or another job. They turn attention to something else (GMAT score, early promotions, etc.).
You recruited for PE because you want a career in PE and that's that. This type will continue to do their job but won’t stress over top bucket reviews generally will coast going forward; they won't phone it in, but they won't obsess over top bucket reviews,
Do analysts let their team know they've gotten an offer? Or do they keep their head down for a year and bounce once the bonus hits?
If you have to tell anyone, it should be close personal friends: people that won't share your news and would feel hurt if you didn't tell them. Don't widely circulate the news.
Would you say that most people who are #2, genuinely interested in PE and want to stay, are allowed to stay and make it up to Partner, or is it still hard even after all the people who don't want to stay get weeded out?

At any good firm B-players that "coast" will be removed. Parasites.
Lol @ monkey shit. Key phrase being "good firm".
Not really, it's pretty hard to get fired as an analyst. You're cheap labor on a relative basis - if you try to "coast" you might get bad staffings, but they'll still use you.
Yeah, doing an "ok" job doesn't get you anywhere close to being fired lol.
