0 You are a cuccccckkkkk Associate 2 in IB - Cov
0 I know many GS private credit analysts in NYC and they all love it. Seems like a great culture and platform with lots of deal flow in certain groups (not so much in hybrid capital). Analyst 1 in IB - Cov

0 Name and shame, this is not acceptable in 2025 IB. Analyst 2 in IB - Gen
0 Thought it was self assumed that a good sector / subsector will have liquidity, volatility, dispersion between high and low quality companies, multiple topical themes. My sense was TMT/Consumer would have a lot of that. Analyst 3+ in HF - Other
0 just look at the old questions they like to ask on liquidityshark  Romulus_van_gogh
0 OpenAI has no moat at this point except the users. But unlike web or apps the foundation models cost way too much to just rely on user growth for profit, and they are a commodity now. cp5670

0 I'd assume a lot of them haven't dropped yet. MS dropped Today, and last year citi dropped later. Its likely to be with less fanfare but these programs will continue to exist just without the press. DonDylan

0 Just as an example from looking at my PA's trade history, I'm wrong (just in terms of # of trades) ~90% of the time because I'll play around with lots of things purely out of curiosity that I don't have any real edge on in PrivateTechquity 🚀🚀🚀
0 If you’re wrong 90% of the times. Why can’t you just reverse your decision all the time?  PrivateTechquity 🚀🚀🚀

0 Its crazy, I will be frustrated for the rest of my life in one of the roles you mention Polon
0 Nope, this is a fundamental misunderstanding of the purpose of the firm. The firm does not exist to stoke your ego, it exists to maximize value extraction for LPs. PEarbitrage
0 I think it’s because they need to review most things I do and are afraid that there is a mistake so they lose a bit of trust Polon
0 Congrats on UBS  and if you have the safety net, just GTFO and don’t look back  Analyst 2 in IB - Gen
0 I'll bite Trump is an unpleasant individual, with a long history of personal misconduct and legal issues that everyone knows about and literally overturning a legitimate election in 2020. unders

0 We're missing one key detail. What's the bonus? goodL1fe
0 No joke do shrooms  green_duck
0 70-80 hrs/week is a pretty standard week for a junior. Pulling 100 hr weeks consistently is ridiculous and not sustainable. RBOB_squarepants

0 Tech is a great group if you want to join the ~35th best Tech Bank/Boutique in the US Analyst 2 in IB - Gen
0 Litmus test for CIBC HR and their commitment to providing a safe space for juniors. All involved need to be held accountable.  Analyst 2 in IB - Cov
0 this is the correct answer. The biggest reason why poor countries remain poor is the misallocation of capital and corruption. lim12
0 Does your bank not pay for league table information services? If not, I’ll educate. YTD WF has announced $280B of deals in the US, Jeffries has announced $180B Globally. Analyst 1 in Non-profit
0 Thanks, yeah if you want to do small deals then yes, JEF is the clear winner (and there’s no shame in that fwiw, money’s green). If you want to do more large cap deals then go to WF.. easy enough? Analyst 1 in Non-profit
0 Fear of Mossad is the beginning of wisdom; if you have any doubts about that aphorism, you might want to ask C. K*rk personally in a face-to-face manner captprice

0 the intern speaks again Prospect in Private Credit
0 thanks for doing this! 19tm
0 True, Bocconi ESS makes you ready for anything if you survive, it’s really well regarded in the European market in every sector even if it’s not as competitive to get in as the MFin. francescobiagini
0 It really all depends on who your MD is. There is one in our firm that is a complete disaster. no guidance, constant chaos, and his VP is left second-guessing his whims Intern in IB - ECM
0 No worries. Bank of America will scoop up all the underperformers as always and pay them two year guarantees while paying their existing top performers rat shit. Analyst 3+ in Private Credit
0 Exits to the projects  Intern in IB-M&A
0 Purely a joke, much like taxes. That said, as irrational and likely impossible to implement Trump's idea is, in theory I wouldn't be against some proposal that eliminated taxes in exchange for consumption-based fees. PrivateTechquity 🚀🚀🚀
0 Thank you for the response! If you don't mind my asking since hours less do you see a significant impact on comp? What do the VP, Director, MD make as TC for PF lending? Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
