S&T or QS
Hi Everyone!
Hoping to gather some feedback/advice, I'm a Junior trying to compare between two '26 summer offers and I'd like to hear what alternative views people mag have
Offer 1: Quantitative analyst/strategist at a multi asset team in large AM
Offer 2: Sales & Trading rotational internship at a BB
Off the bat, comp for 1) seems a little lower than 2) but offers better WLB and more intellectually stimulating work but the exposure and culture from the sell side also seems rather attractive
I eventually want to have a little more agency and not necessarily need to manage my own models 24/7, and probably aim towards being a PM in the future.
Both offers are quite attractive but offer rather distinct pathways and very frankly I can't confidently say I know what I want to do specifcially in the future but I would probably prefer the position that would give me the most flexibility/options.
What would you guys do?
Congrats. Id go quant hands down.
Thanks! But do you mind if I ask what’s the reasoning for quant being the obvious choice here for you?
Wider range of exits, better hours, WFH, better people, likely better comp throughout your career, etc. Large AM means pretty good stability if I had to guess as well.
appreciate the response!
