Would you consider WF a BB (they are a big bank but I'd hardly call them an investment bank). Either way I think they have a floor out in SF.

Also, I guess Google now has a trading floor in SF/Bay Area.

looking for that pick-me-up to power through an all-nighter?
 

Thanks. Sry wouldn't consider WF a BB, but am also open to prop shop jobs there as well.

Basically I'm just wondering if there are as many trading jobs in Norcal as there are PE/VC ones

 

Thanks, that's pretty helpful. I'm basically just wondering if a fixed-income trader can make it out in that area (I know they have lots of pe/vc shops there)

 
CarolinaHeels12I can't see how anyone would want to get up before 4 am every morning to go to work...

It's not before 4am....I get in at 6am, and it just takes some getting used to. I am by no means a morning person, but it's doable.
