+-1 Step 1: Wake up Step 2: LARP being an investment banker Repeat mara20
+-1 Is EVR Tech that sweaty? Heard they grind hard Analyst 2 in IB - Cov
+-1 Probably the toughest group at EVR in terms of hours, demand etc (true for both NYC or Menlo, both are harsh to be honest) Analyst 1 in IB - Cov
+-1 How is BBVA? Have seen a lot of posting on linkedin for different roles and analyst programs Analyst 2 in IB - Cov
+-1 Jefferies needs to go down a tier. as-dfg-hjk
+-1 If you want software but do not want SF, NY still has solid options, just fewer of them and usually more growth / crossover / public-private flavored than the classic bay area ecosystem. stonewall212
+-1 GLC? LongtimeLurker102
+-1 Northeastern or Rice.  Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
+-1 Based on the provided context, here is a structured response for benchmarking LMM Principal/Director compensation: WSO Monkey Bot

+-1 . Intern in IB-M&A
+-1 I hate that this is a thing. Personally I’d never go on a second date with women like that. I expect that she gets upset if I try to pay for even a coffee/drink or at least to offer to buy the next one. pbandjpartners
+-1 Associate 1 in IB - Gen Intern in CB
+-1 Hooray, yet another tierlist! Spreadsheet Sasquatch
+-1 Breaking into macro trading, especially from a non-target school like Boston University, is definitely possible with the right strategy and preparation. Here’s a breakdown of your questions and some advice: WSO Monkey Bot
+-1 Stupid questions deserve stupid answers. All those answered are far too kind Analyst 2 in HF - Event
+-1 bump Intern in IB - Gen
+-1 Congrats on Scotia! treymckenney
+-1 There’s a lot of dry powder johnnypython
+-1 Based on the most helpful WSO content, there isn't specific information about Austin roommate threads or recommendations for housing in mid-June. WSO Monkey Bot
+-1 “Go to therapy” lol VP in PE - LBOs
+-1 well evercore is at 100 bn YTD, 25x PJT's current deal flow right now, contradictory to PJT being in the same rank as Evercore. Analyst 2 in IB-M&A
+-1 (all by one tier) - Tidal higher, TD Cowen higher, Piper lower, Gugg lower, Moelis lower, UBS lower Analyst 2 in IB - Cov
+-1 Yes, but wouldn’t hiring laterals from other banks be better? Even if it was smaller deals, they’re still familiar with the day to day work streams of IB and will require less training but same pay as an MBA associate Analyst 2 in IB-M&A
+-1 Why, trying to get an invite to Jeffery's island? Analyst 1 in IB - Gen
+-1 This is a worthwhile question to ask - as PE fundraising slows and recruiting pipeline dries up, I can imagine A2A becoming a more attractive path (in relative terms). swe2ibd
+-1 You’re actually in the same stage most beginners go through — and the confusion is completely normal because trading content online is often either oversimplified or overhyped. liamcarter86000
+-1 P72 pipeline still going, Ivey goated smokingdatpack
+-1 It's still not that material.  I know plenty of regular guys who own wooden boats because they were crafty enough to build them on their own, not because they were rich Soros_
+-1 I knew I could invest when I went all in on ornamental gourd futures lost everything but learned a lot war dog
+-1 Brother I once had to tell a model to basically fuck off because she was an entitled asshole. pbandjpartners
+-1 Congrats on PWP fan_of_mungduh
+-1 Read the other dudes comment. I’m not tryna sound insufferable but I am concerned StanleyMonkey
+-1 I'm risk-averse as a background.  dcccc
+-1 Great point, color plays a powerful role in shaping user perception and emotional response. davidjenkins
+-1 Thanks for sharing - makes sense. It will be easier for the MBA Associate to get fast at modelling, than it would be for a VP IB lifer to get the knowledge the MBA Associate would have.  TobyTwoTone
+-1 "Someone in BB Levfin" bro 2 months ago you posted that you are incoming at an mm lmao dont kid yourself dude - also top 5 is super generous, province and m3 are both better in terms of exits and opportunities and A&M/ Intern in Acct - Audit
+-1 Are you fuckin special?😂 Prospect in IB - Cov
+-1 lol analysts j*ck off to themselves that they can make a fool proof “model” in 15 minutes… the higher up you go, the more you see no one gives a fck about the models.  VP in IB - Gen
+-1 It forever boggles my mind that there are people in IB that think things like this are funny. VP in IB - Cov
+-1 Irony is most mofos don’t even get to model as Analysts. They are all gassed up by VPs VP in IB-M&A
+-1 Only 1 letter between a chud and a chad moneymaker03
+-1 Literally how am I wrong rooseveltfan
+-1 Source on that report? Thanks Soros_
+-1 always been curious. I think Stellus and Main Cap are the two direct lenders in Houston no? I've never heard of anyone else. fuku
+-1 Literally the exact guy who had the thought that you tried to mock lil bro. Keep it moving and RX your way to your own industry forum VP in IB-M&A
+-1 low key you're turning these women into minor gold diggers. wtf man pbandjpartners
+-1 Become delusionally confident to the point where your partners call you a narcissist. You must develop the mentality that you're better than everyone, because the truth is, you will be if you simply believe it. Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
+-1 yeah I think the priority is always she makes her own damn money (lots of it) > she's just rich at birth and not going to waste it > she make her own damn money (enough to get by) and will likely make more. pbandjpartners
+-1 If you go on their website, it says analysts make 80-90k and associates 100-200k base, so I guess I am confused on how one makes 400K even as an associate prob through bonuses, but still. Prospect in IB - Cov
+-1 Nepo's and client kids go to non T20's all the time. You obviously can't cold network into a T20 firm as a non target but Evercore will take a client kid from Fordham over a 3.9 from Wharton any day. Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
+-1 Selection of non-targets is a combination of client/nepo kids and also a way to keep senior members of the firm happy through their alma mater  Associate 2 in IB - Cov
+-1 why so Prospect in PE - Growth
+-1 Horrendous returns. Just ask around. That’s why there was a big personnel change recently. Investment Analyst in HF - Other
+-1 Jeff HOU is S++++  and is equivalent to the geniuses at UBS FIG wuandale33
+-1 Impossible without a jump to IBD. This has been explored quite a bit across WSO (but agree we need more London-based content on this topic!) MOICProtection
+-1 Fade Dartmouth. Its in 2026, you want a good exposure to STEM beside simply just IBD even if its that something you want to pursue, which is something Columbia and Cornell offer. Analyst 2 in IB-M&A
+-1 as someone in quant what this is just not true wsoquantmonke
+-1 Cornell is significantly less cutthroat than any of the schools listed here. People are simply much more collaborative, less than trying to screw up someone else's outcome. Analyst 2 in IB-M&A
+-1 The school with the best placements no matter how you slice it up (overall, per capita, buyside, top sellside) shouldn’t be in the conversation? Stern hate has gone too far rooseveltfan
+-1 Obviously stern 188m
+-1 What does this even mean 188m
+-1 Can someone please doxx this kid so we don’t have to deal with these clown ass posts every single day? He’s allegedly a seemingly normal guy who goes to Wharton. Associate 2 in PE - Other
+-1 Bump wuandale33

+-1 What? I just had a stroke trying to read that.  user_5991
+-1 Don’t do healthcare PE. It’s over SOFRsoGood
+-1 Precisely the reason you ended up in RX VP in IB-M&A
+-1 Shockingly, a business school has higher placements than non business schools. Incredible insight here Intern in Consulting
+-1 From what I’ve seen, SEO AIFP is only valuable if it’s hands-on. saadnaseer
+-1 furry meetings GS under Blankfein
+-1 Play lacrosse at amherst if you're a raging D bag and lacrosse at williams if you have no friends. try and target Conn if you want girlfriend. hope this helps Analyst 2 in IB-M&A
+-1 Because kids at HYPSW are increasingly taking even better jobs - hedge fund / PE / AI-startups. They realize ur little Evercore is DOGSHIT NOW Associate 1 in IB-M&A
+-1 Sounds like classic “headline noise + internal cleanup”. Offer cancellations and attrition often get mixed up in rumors, but firms usually optimize headcount one way or another behind the scenes. bobybryan
+-1 Dyson is the IB King- look at LinkedIN and you will see what I mean- every grad is working for a major bank in IB and earning well over 100k. Do the same for Stanford and see what comes up? lawandacrutcher
+-1 I don’t see why you couldn’t at least float the idea of an origination fee tethered to deal close. Larry Lamda
+-1 Maybe go outside Regional_pubfin
+-1 - Title: Analyst 4- Firm type: Elite MM - Group type: Tax- Base salary: $80k- Bonus: $200k stock, $50k amazon gift card, $15 cash ebitdamaxxer
+-1 About time men start reporting this crap. Just because they get free cat doesn’t mean it is legal.  Senior VP in IB-M&A
+-1 the book Lorna has read before all those events unfolded GS under Blankfein
+-1 As a transfer, UVA is the clear option, you'll be starting at the same point as many kids in McIntire, so you will be much more competitive for recruiting out of here laxy
+-1 Based on my experience she has evaded accountability due to some powerful sponsor, likely group head. I wouldn’t be surprised if she is delivering same services to him/her.  Director in IB-M&A
+-1 These kids are all analysts lmao They don’t know how much power an ED of all ppl really have, not hard at all to pull a couple strings VP in PE - LBOs
+-1 Yep. I don’t bank with my employer for this exact reason. I know which of my coworkers would (appropriately) have system access to just look up all my shit. That’s a no from me. bankerbuddy498
+-1 You were at a horrible PE shop then — I’ve never heard of somebody working that hard for that little pay. That’s atrocious. Associate 2 in PE - LBOs
+-1 I mean it’s all about risk-reward. You can start as an associate at an established platform, get good training, and still become a mid-level at a fund like 26north or whatever first time fund. Associate 1 in PE - LBOs
+-1 I don't know dude. Personally, as a partner I wouldnt be so lenient. You are paid the big bucks for your age because you are supposed to be reliable, good with numbers and hardworking. Jaded Rainmaker
+-1 Rice had its best year of NY & SF placements yet and has been steadily improving. For top placement, its almost all or nothing when it comes to getting into Wall Street for McCombs (the club). Prospect in IB - Cov
