+1 Typically carry is awarded during fundraise but some funds tie it to promotions or allocate annually. You have a solid case to get carry in the current fund if they expect you to work on new deals or portcos in that fund. PEanon
+1 Bumping given the Eterna spin-off: which fund would you rather be at, the legacy PE or the new tech? flipcup
+1 As a Chicagoan, I must add that Chicago is a perfect mix of fun and affordability (assuming you can handle the cold coming from the north east) ImagineSisyphusHappy
+1 Kipps, Raymond James, and Baird are your big three players focused on Gov and Defense. Other banks grab mandates here and there but are likely to be less attractive assets. anonfinance1
+1 You should look to start out in Trade Support,  Trade Settlement, and Market Risk roles.  Substack_Guy
+1 You will not be underpaid at Citadel. Sorry, I'm not willing or able to divulge further on personalities. Although worth mentioning that Edwin Lim - perhaps still on sabbatical - has a great reputation. Burke
+1 Its a target by now, and Dartmouth is full of nepos but that seemingly doesnt matter to how its perceived.  Atlcalling
+1 I think the problem is these guys come across as absolute chodes and they're publicly tying themselves to working at the bank. NuclearPenguins
+1 You could also test them and argue for 'shadow carry' to make you whole and bridge you to the fundraise (which would probably be more work to set-up and less tax advantaged than giving you real carry). SaaSChimp
+1 I hear good things about Solomon especially the consumer group. Great place to get exposure, amazing culture. Associate 1 in IB - Gen
+1 Just join a unicorn bro alex50
+1 GOATed show, not about finance tho. jarstar1
+1 Mayb your carry might suck for a little, but the asset class is here to stay. It’s like of like asking if banking is dead post-2008 (not that we are seeing a GFC level scenario here. We’re not) mullah123
+1 People that say AI will never replace humans are coping in my opinion. evcfluminense
+1 A very small minority. And those who could/do have this lifestyle certainly aren’t just answering phone calls and golfing. Associate 1 in RE - Comm

+1 Happy to help, most BBs (except my own) I think are ok if you're final year but I suppose even if you are, summer '26 is already done. leefbmp

+1 From a life experience perspective, I would have 100% jumped at the opportunity to work abroad in my 20's. If you don't like it, you can just move back. 9percent

+1 I think we’re largely arguing the same point but a broker can either make much more or much less than his “peer” on the ownership side. BostonCREdude

+1 Confirming this is the structure. Generally accepted it doesn’t apply to PE / industry.  uncle rick
+1 BostonCREdudeWell, who is taking risk on the ownership side that isn’t the actual firm owner? Ozymandia
+1 And to add - if you have similarly had to wait a bit for it to be scheduled - how much time did you wait to circle back with them, and at what email address? Works at Nothing
+1 In the US, Santander has inherited legacy Credit Suisse groups in LevFin, FSG, Energy, etc and they’re doing well. I think they might be the best-paying Euro bank on the street right now as well. Works at Deutsche Bank

+1 yeah, did you get the offer? feel free to message me  wallstreetflower
+1 That is complete bullshit. Worked in banking and I had a low GPA from a target. I had valuation experience and that was it. WilliDillie
+1 If financial situation is an issue, you may want to check SSE (0 fee for EU citizens) Stockholm may not be the cheapest city, but neither is Milan, Rotterdam nor that beautiful small village in Switzerland :) BankerBambaryla
+1 Lol the mods deleted the comments about the female A2A in PU&I who's been sleeping with a married senior banker Analyst 2 in IB - Cov
+1 Has any info come out on their NYC bonuses? Whopper.Jr
+1 I think it's more about time rather than costs. Amazon has gotten really aggressive in their delivery times now, with customers being able to get packages same day or next day very easily. Associate 3 in RE - Comm
+1 Ok, thanks for the context. Yes NY is new. Was fairly close to the Toronto team back in time but it’s been a few years. They do fair bit of infra and has decent relationship with pensions / large infra investors.  Associate 1 in PE - Other
+1 Genuinely amazing but not worth the price - someone on Reddit selling at a crazy discount. Analyst 1 in IB - Gen
+1 Arguably, Centerview likely could have lost the case as they originally seemed to have granted the “medical” exemption and allowed her originally to work those hours. Analyst 3+ in IB - Cov
+1 I’m asking for a path that is better than PE. ETF is a brainless example of how underperforming PE is as an asset class and I think LPs notice that too. Associate 2 in PE - LBOs

+1 A millie as a VP Quant? Do you think I'm Bjarne Stroustrup?And it's ok bud I'd rather get silver than import a Mexican captain so I win gold once every 42 years AVP Quant
+1 People shit on Canada because the salaries are lower than elsewhere, but they don't factor that a house in the same neighbourhoods where some billionaires live costs 1.2M USD on average (Toronto) - less than your average c AVP Quant
+1 you get paid on aum and hugging the inde,x not to take risk and find alpha so incentives Research Analyst in HF - Other
+1 Cut the shit dude. U don't work at citi Not too hard to piece together exactly who you are based off your comments. Might want to check that before provoking people on the internet. walkemdown
+1 I actually just got an email from recruiting, inviting me to the in person GCB Insight & Networking Session, giving me options for 6 different locations. frikzy
+1 been tracking these platforms for a while. The biggest differentiator that most advisors miss is the Practitioner Model vs the SaaS/Institutional Model. jasper.thorne1
+1 They only have “value” with the travel agents which is increasingly being eaten up by AI. Associate 1 in PE - LBOs
+1 looking back if you want to place IB AND have fun, IU is the best school in the country hands down. random17262

+1 Thanks appreciate the response. Prospect in IB-M&A
+1 AI access then through APIs built by airlines.  Booking travel is the first example shown on ChatGPT’s AI page. No joke, you can search for it. Associate 1 in PE - LBOs
+1 re dashboards don't close deals—practitioner expertise does. For independent bankers moving upstream into $20M+ deals, the bottleneck isn't the data room, it's the compliance partner. jasper.thorne1
+1 Awesome reply! Thanks for your perspective VP in PE - Other
+1 Prospect in IB - GenJudge the idea, not the title. MF PE analyst anyway.  PrivateTechquity 🚀🚀🚀

+1 prorated: 100k, at a MM Incoming Analyst in IB - Gen
+1 It never was. Own and build your own business, go be the 0.000001% of the hedge fund world or understand that to have the best path for wealth creation you need to be backed by the wealth of overs. Associate 1 in IB - Gen
+1 It’s trading below par because somebody thinks somebody else will sell it at 88. People sell for all sorts of reasons, and sometimes there is no bid. Research Associate in AM - FI
+1 It’s hilarious watching some of you all still tiptoe around the obvious fact that Trump is a moron.  Devils Advocate
+1 bump anonymous4433
+1 unless you're an asian becky who can go home whenever like some of the ANs there Intern in IB - Cov
+1 Rotterdam and rsm aren't cheap if that's really your argument lol.  You can basically do your bachelors for free in the EU or a few hundred euros. Check SSE, CBS, mannheim etc. Qwentin8
+1 VP Quant: Broketree Capital
+1 Also need to factor in required return for risk. Its covered today at 67% LTV (100/150) and bonds in same sector with same detachment point may have higher coupon (ie. Research Analyst in HF - Event

+1 Attitude & mindset. Period. Principal in HF - Other
+1 All the schools you're mentioning are target recruitment schools. That said, do not assume just because you attend any of them that you're guaranteed a job. Principal in HF - Other
+1 You should read about strategic asset allocation, risk budgeting and portable alpha - then explain why the combination of passive index and hedge fund allocations isn’t a better solution than either alone; or, more simply, Burke
+1 Interviewed for the fundraising team a few years ago and made it to the final round for the NYC office. Very odd people with no personality Prospect in PE - Other
+1 Dude just go home the same time as they do.  tellmehowtoplay

+1 Bro is not a client kid akpsiontop
+1 My guy nothing has diverged yet, this is a 10-12 week internship where you're getting some pro-rated cash. A good chunk of that is gonna get blown on housing for whatever city you're interning in. Monkeys at the gate 426
+1 Instead of addressing real problems people pile onto easy symbolic targets. It’s emotionally satisfying but not particularly productive. ResilientNomad
