I’m an enormous fan of frivolous hive minding and there seems to be an awful amount of it going on in the individual SA threads. Here’s a survey to gauge people’s’ thoughts!

Very meaningful survey. The incoming SA class seems to be a collection of stupids
Shouldn’t assume other people are as stupid me how rude
In your survey, question four states "Please describe your surprise to Citi/Moelis/HL extending full time offers to all SA." Unless I missed it, I was not aware that HL made the same move. Mind directing me to where you saw or heard of this? If they did so, that's another one to add to the tally, and promising news to those who are in my shoes.
HL did not extend automatic FT offers
HL didn't give FTO.
Thanks for the clarification. The survey is a bit misleading in this respect.
It’d be great if everybody got full times but I truly don’t see how this is sustainable. Prepare to see layoffs 3 months on the job. Good PR, but not practical imo
Yeah they’ll just rebalance teams with business needs/fit/quality of people during the probation period
can anyone confirm or deny the HL comment?
Didn't happen
Which BB/EBs would people expect to offer automatic returns? Obviously some have capacity and some don’t, but I’m not sure that all banks decided to downsize their intern class for this summer.
Nice survey, especially that you controlled for personal biases. Looking forward to seeing the results!
The worst part is I can't even tell if this is sarcastic or not xD
