I am moving to New York city for an investment banking role. A perk I really liked at my old job was the meal allowance if you stayed past a certain hour. Do all NYC firms have this perk? This née firm is pretty well known and similar to HSBC, Wells Fargo and Houlihan Lokey. Has anyone heard of bigger firms not offering the meal allowance?

Not that I’m aware of - dinner stipend pretty standard. My firm also pays for lunch most days.
That’s awesome. Are you in NY?
That’s awesome! Are you in New York and investment banking?
Does anyone know what WF’s perks usually are?
HL is 40 a night on weekdays and 20 for lunch on Sundays.
M&A or RX?
Both
I'm assuming you're after HSBC Weekday: $25 for dinner, you can start ordering at 7pm Weekend: $15 for lunch, $25 for dinner
Rothschild $35/day
Anyone know what Solomon Partners is?

HW 35/40 a night for dinner (40 for bos & SF, 35 for richmond and minny), 25 for lunch on weekends too.
Piper - 30$ for dinner.
How much is Gugg?
blair?
35 outside of Chicago which is 30.
KeyBanc (KBCM) is $25 for dinner in Cleveland but $30 for dinner in every other office location (NY, SF, Chicago)
For NY/SF 35 is pretty common. But Houlihan definitely offers more in this regard with their lunch stipend as well.
