Is your onsite part of the 10/17 Chicago superday? Peak6 definitely doesn't have the prestige or pay of a big quant fund like Citadel or Grey Street, but they are an established place. There aren't any recent salary points of data on WSO, but what data does exist and Glassdoor suggest that it would be a bit lower than an S&T role at a BB.
Yep, but I have a clash with midterms and they aren't being flexible, so doesn't seem to be worth it for me to go that far out of the way for them it seems
Makes sense, it will be up to your guess on what other opportunities you can expect to have instead of this. They aren't my #1, but I don't have the background to be choosy. If my professors weren't being flexible either, I don't think I could justify tanking a class that hard for an interview.
