+-1 SSE is better than bocconi. They take very small cohort of students each year for undergrad (1100) vs 8000+ for bocconi. Also its free for many students and cheap since many get a scholarship  Intern in IB - Gen

+-1 Doesn’t Evercore have like 20 ASOs + 20 VPs and JEFF only like 5 of each. Pretty sure at JEFF you’ll just get worked to the bone which is also why everyone there always just looks so burnt out or leaves after 2-3 years jejxjx

+-1 Where did you meet your wife? ojapar20

+-1 How many women was this behavior directed at? If it was only a couple, you could probably argue that it was just those two specifically who got on his nerves. If it was 5/10+ women, I'd probably say something.  StandardHardo
+-1 Firm is mediocre - try go better with nicer opportunities down the line Prospect in IB - Cov
