I worked at a trading place as a junior trader. One of the juniors forgot to update something with the futures and the big boss got so mad he threw all of us off the desk in a snow storm to walk around for like an hour before we came back at like 9:15 before market open lol. Everyday was explosive and a different wild time but thats trading for ya. I look back and laugh about it.

Have heard so many stories from analysts at FT Partners. Don't have the time to type them up right now but considering the CEO of the firm had his face engraved on fake coins that he sent to everyone in the firm a few months ago instead of actually rewarding them, you know this place is a little out there.
What the actual fuck? Yeah I dodged a bullet there. He's probably stalkin this thread right now lmao

Would be interested to hear any stories that you or anyone else could share. Have some buddies who are weighing offers there
Just check out the old threads about them. Still haven't really changed. Hours are now even worse.
Here's a classic one from my intern days
These are usually the types of analysts who grow up to be major dicks as MDs. Have personal experience with these sort of guys and they suck.
Wow this is bad. What an asshole
Yeah funny thing is I have a whole collection of other ridiculous emails from this guy too
Probably MS Menlo
I don’t get what compels people to behave like that. Insecure bozos that make their job their personality.
I am experiencing the same. How did you deal with such?
Cant say how many times I got this exact response . Unbelievable

I was at a MM boutique as an Analyst. Once every 2 months the CEO met with the Associates and Analysts to catch up with them. This meeting was for him to tell us how much we’re appreciated, despite the shit pay and expendable view of junior staff.
A new staffing system had been brought in where people reported on a weekly basis their workload out of 10. Issue was different teams had a very different view as to what a 8 or a 9 was, i.e. “busy”. To some an 8 or 9 was consistently working till 10pm and some light weekend work, for others it was early hours of the morning and 12-16 hours over weekend. We asked the CEO to help define what busy should be viewed as so we could more equitably split the workload going forward. He told us to check the DLJ busy memo and ended the meeting. https://www.wallstreetoasis.com/files/DLJ%20Too%20Busy.pdf
Curious -- what was the CEO's general background? Sounds like a hardo
does anyone have bmo metals and mining stories?
That group out of Toronto is brutal. Have heard some disturbing anecdotes about how the FT IB analysts and summer analysts are treated
