Highest Ranked Comments In The Last Month

+1 Which countries are these, or at least which regions are they located in? Intern in RE - Other
+1 Probably #2. Unfortunately nothing is ever guaranteed (no firm will put it in writing) but assuming you trust the firm/people and they you a verbal handshake that’s probably the most fair / likely outcome VP in PE - LBOs
+1 I ranked IB 1st and got the hirevue  phyzixsss
+1 There is no way the Swiss would let their national bank, and a major lever of policy be acquired like that  Prospect in IB-M&A
+1 monkeyvjitwhatever you do, don’t fucking leave VP in IB - Gen
+1 dean787 VP in IB - Gen
+1 Special sits is a very broad umbrella term, so I'm not sure I follow why you see it as a more natural fit coming from RE Associate 2 in AM - FI
+1 I’d only do it as VP. Quite a compromised position going SA old firm -> VP new firm -> SA old firm. If they screw you then what? Nowhere to go. They know that. VP in PE - LBOs
+1 Ok but like are we going to lose the daily UBS update if they get taken out? Rabbit
+1 Zombie fund. No longer making new investments.  Senior VP in IB-M&A
+1 Thank you, appreciate your thoughts. I took the corp dev role due to significant WLB increases but now beginn to miss the money lol (took a ~30% pay cut for like half the hours or sometimes even more). Associate 1 in PE - Other
+1 Yeah I mean if you don’t like the current gig you should be more willing to take a Sr Associate title but only on a clearly defined VP timeline. Associate 1 in PE - Growth
+1 And what did those texts and pictures do to change your view of the case from a hypothetical prosecutor's seat?  Dr. Rahma Dikhinmahas
+1 As far as food goes, Chicken over Rice is usually 9-11 dollars. Chinatown(Flushing or Manhattan) both have really good eats. Wah Ha Fung No. 1 gets packed pretty quickly, but you can get duck over rice for 9.50. Substack_Guy
+1 Personally OP, I would say just no alcohol on your trip could reduce your expenses significantly. NewIndustryHorizon
+1 Maybe too expensive and USC is giving more aid / can live at home Associate 1 in PE - Other

+1 So you can share it to buyers and ask 15% more than market price and exercise everyone's time tinyrat
+1 Agree on the LCD primers, they're free and good. A few things people skip. LedgerShelf
+1 Intern in IB - CovAre you saying the whole narrative around "pure advisory, no conflict of interest" is a dead business model? Analyst 2 in IB - Gen
+1 Isn't the answer simply.... be reckless for a month?  Addinator
+1 Isaiah_53_5 💎🙌💎🙌💎I've been on and off steak for about a year  Is it a drug or something? 😂 IsItREPE
+1 curious if the junior turnover had more to do with associates being let go, or them leaving for greener pastures. If it's more of the latter, it sounds like there's still decent job opportunities in some markets MF Dev
+1 Pretty sure interviews are done but offers aren’t out kittycat7831
+1 I would like to buy your wonderful 1 of a kind search services for 10,000 rupee saar PrivateTechquity 🚀🚀🚀

+1 You might be an awkward Excel monkey Intern in CB
+1 Congrats on your alcohol dependency  Associate 3 in IB - CB
+1 Working off memory from the old "Tides" thread, didn't MF1 have a ton of exposure on the Tides deals? I wondered how things would shake out for them, or how much trouble they were in. MF Dev
+1 Holy sage advice DJtheNonTarget
+1 London office associate salary is 80k base + 50% bonus. Associate class iirc is around 4 people, of which 2 will go to the European offices at some point. Associate 1 in IB-M&A
+1 Have you tried ownership groups? Go on CN Traveler or something, look up the top hotels in the metro near you, and see what companies actually own and/or operate them? CEO in RE - Comm
+1 The universities on your list aren't really targets for London FO IB, so you are better of studying at one of the top universities of your own country. Lorderic
+1 Well if you are planning to end up in a HF studying something STEM based is definitely advised. Lorderic
+1 Nice try sneaking in Rogo! Dogshit product  Associate 1 in IB - Cov
+1 I have heard absolute horror stories. Avoid like the plague SeekingAlpha180
+1 Anyone know best/worst groups? Teller in Non-profit
+1 cmon man. Top5 should have really no excuse. If non targets get it with like 0 network you can and should easily too. abob
+1 Can confirm these guys are done. Wind down. Associate 3 in PE - LBOs
+1 Going through the same thing. 1. AI 2. Substack- damnang, semianlaysis and more are great writers. role109
+1 No additional exams are required for Rx Associate 2 in IB-M&A
+1 All good groups but would go Sponsors > Tech >>> IND  Analyst 1 in IB - Gen
+1 Unless you are absolutely miserable at Dartmouth, this is a bad idea lol Analyst 2 in IB - Cov
+1 This doesn't sound like a bad opportunity especially if you feel like you've hit a dead-end with your current role. Corporate RE tends to have a better work-life balance, so it can be a fair trade-off. Associate 3 in RE - Comm
+1 I recommend talking to the most active recruiters in your field. they are like brokers and love talking. pere797
+1 As a victim of EU PE, I still am shocked at how low it is. Most funds have adapted upwards to closer to £200k all-in Associate 2 in PE - LBOs
+1 Anonymous Monkey: Hey, how'd it go? Was it very technical?  R_Anonymous
+1 Most of the stuff you can learn off the desk is product specifics so that sort of relies on you figuring out what you would be interested in trading. mrdrralph
+1 Going to go out on a limb here and say this is bad advice eatbitda
+1 Highly suggest the Canary Wharfian website, most advice/info here is US-focussed EvitaPhamroq9m
+1 Funny enough they closed one within the last month (not announced). But yes, firm is winding down. VP in PE - LBOs
+1 Partially yes, a internationally strong bachelor brand would give you an edge in masters admission but as long as you are attending a top regional university, have a strong GPA and a good GMAT score you’l get in. Lorderic
+1 Feasibility and investment analysis with one of the major brands is a common starting place. Also look into larger owners, like Trinity Investments, that have on-cycle internship programs. Philly Special
+1 Congrats on Piper! alweiss
+1 Same. So funny. Even the WSO mod team was getting offended by my posts. Stupid libs babalu
+1 Its just incredible to me. Dr. Rahma Dikhinmahas
+1 Also , there is a reasonable bet that the building will deliver into a different market. Development is a long term game. Staying power is a question of doing deals when other people think deals TOTALLY MAKE NO SENSE. realanalyst1234
+1 i don't know the ranks all that well and i read this twice, fully thinking you were talking about cocaine or something. i thought there was a whole subculture on WSO i was missing. Invalid_CREdentials
+1 Joined over 13 years ago. The title is fitting.  It shouldn't be that rare to spot one though. There's a reason the title exists. CRE
+1 Bump Intern in IB-M&A
+1 A HBS MBA graduate isn’t equal to a Harvard College graduate as far as I know. Lorderic
+1 Cograts on UCC king and shit RX shop! as-dfg-hjk
+1 you can try to raw-dog it, but there's usually a limit. Kevin25
+1 More like a GM role - manage the team, process, metrics, costs, and product. Associate 2 in PE - LBOs
+1 Another framing of investment banking is just being compensated to speedrun a heart attack eatbitda
+1 same got it over a week ago Prospect in Credit
+1 I'm thinking about three options right now: Workhardandwin
+1 What happened last year? Intern in IB-M&A
+1 It's supply and demand and right now a lot of jobs out of college (especially in NYC and LA) barely pay enough to cover rent, healthcare, gas, and groceries. So no. Manager in CorpStrat
+1 they did 1 deal all year Analyst 2 in IB-M&A
+1 TPH isn’t booting Sanjiv out of anything and he will retain probably more power than any single person in that combined group lol (and will take care of his guys). the bigger issue is cultural fit Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
+1 Assuming you’re joining as a BA, above posts are misleading. Go to one of Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial, LSE, UCL or LBS and the degree doesn’t matter that much (even at masters level). Works at McKinsey & Company
+1 In the world of special situations and distressed investing, the perception of a director-level professional from a fund with poor returns can vary based on several factors: WSO Monkey Bot
+1 Amazingly written, bravo! Alt_F4
+1 Amazing lessons, thank you for sharing! Alt_F4
+1 Amazing advice, thank you for sharing! Alt_F4
+1 Amazing advice, thank you for sharing your deep knowledge! Alt_F4
+1 For those who went PE → corp dev / strategic finance: does staying through Senior Associate materially improve the level / cash comp you can exit into versus leaving as a 2nd-year Associate? Analyst 2 in IB-M&A
+1 Sure, but Cornell is Cornell at the end of the day. Like above, its not like they are coming from a school that generally has an insane spectrum of intellectual abilities  Analyst 1 in IB - Gen
+1 Hi, have question about them. Do you know any additional information if these firms still hire and do you know other firms that sponsor? bratanio
+1 Don’t cover for them. If the VP is too drunk to function, handle the situation safely and document what happened. Hanlon
+1 I would be more open-minded and flexible. You like finance and investing, that's great. Pursue IB (in general) and gain exposure to a bunch of things. MMPM
+1 Yeah, the reality is the industry is full of fucking losers.  schoeyy
+1 Check the rest of the European banks index... nutmegger189
+1 Yeah it’s significantly lagging them as well Associate 1 in IB - Cov
+1 Good thing Daddy Vance wants to eliminate the H1B program Intern in IB - Gen
+1 Feel like note buying is more of an equity shop play than a debt play at this point. There isn’t broad bank distress causing a bunch of sales of performing loans at discount. therightcoast_
+1 Would advise against the ethnicity one unless you’re certain. I get a lot of students emailing me who think I’m Hispanic (I’m white with an English name) Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
+1 Anonymous Monkey: they did 1 deal all year Nothing but pitch work and jerking off 😭 Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
+1 Mb, was reading the numbers wrong. But still this is much more likely to do with their capital/regulatory situation than anything to do with what this site likes to talk about nutmegger189
+1 yea guess i could've lied but it's too late for that so and the negligible chance they check might not have been worth the risk anyways Intern in IB - Gen
+1 bump WaltSim
+1 Yes - I took it in my early 30s and definitely experienced ED issues. I was also on TRT so that should negate the ED issues but exacerbate male androgenic alopecia. im not very creative
+1 You jump off the vessel Intern in IB - Gen
+1 Thanks for the insights. These are the considerations that have come up in conversations with peers and are shaping my own thinking about the space. asdfg123_

+1 You talk to him about it first. ravena
