+-1 They're femenists only when it benefits them lol Sup_Bro23
+-1 This you who started this thread 10 months ago?  VP in PE - LBOs
+-1 Sound like a DEI Becky desperate to rescue DEI Lorna. Lawyers often advise clients not to participate in internal investigations led by banks which is exactly what Rana did.  Principal in IB-M&A
+-1 financebrotatochips: OJDidntDoIt
+-1 She is going to jail Principal in IB-M&A
+-1 There are no exits to HFs from Vista or similar funds. Not sure what you’re talking about. Certainly good opps in corp finance / strat at startups Talisker
+-1 Lock her up and abolish all DEI quotas. No more handouts Principal in IB-M&A
+-1 you should probably renege Analyst 2 in IB-M&A
+-1 She is getting locked up. More cases will be reported. No more DEI VP in IB-M&A
+-1 Why are NYU and Michigan in the same group as ND? And why is UNC near any of them lol? Btw there is more than a chance at NYU... its the second most represented school. 188m
+-1 Yuuuuuge win for hardworking men. She is getting locked up  Intern in IB - Cov
+-1 What was the outcome - what did the case cover? Intern in IB - Gen
+-1 This doesn't really matter because no one will pick schools like IU or NYU over Princeton, Yale, or Brown. VP in IB - Gen
+-1 Do you honestly think the experience is going to be that useful? Also, I don't plan on recruiting for LMM after IB. Just not really sure what the value-add is here. Prospect in IB-M&A
+-1 Sad news. Lorna and JPM parted ways  Director in IB-M&A
+-1 I will give you the real reason for the “coldness.” People aren’t necessarily like that going into IB/PE — it happens to you. SOFRsoGood
+-1 They are in a similar league I think SOFRsoGood
+-1 Concept still applies as in you still think that, but this story is not evidence for that statement, so now it’s just you seeing an Indian guy and going “damn H1Bs” lmao SOFRsoGood
+-1 Concept still applies as in importing workers where fraud and dishonesty is deeply embedded into their culture is a horrible idea. It’s common sense  Associate 1 in IB - CB
+-1 Yes overconsumption is bad but MRI does not use radiation bro Benson Says
+-1 Yeah, I would say past 5 years is still pretty recent when we think about PE. No need to split hairs asshole Incoming Analyst in IB - Gen
+-1 If your ultimate goal is the US Green Card, Brown is significantly easier. OPT and the CPT process give you a much more direct foothold in the US market compared to trying to navigate the J-1 or L-1 routes from the UK. khan.mmua
+-1 Oxford is incredible for UK/EU quant finance, but for the US, the alumni network at Brown will be more helpful for those initial internships. dean787
+-1 dude it’s commercial banking 😂😂 Analyst 1 in IB - Cov
+-1 . VCP3
+-1 Anything interesting you found about Fordham? computer_activate_excelbeastmode
+-1 mainly in Houston offices lol computer_activate_excelbeastmode
+-1 candidly, this is one of those questions you're supposed to develop your own voice on or you probably shouldn't make the switch/won't have the right mindset IMO PrivateTechquity 🚀🚀🚀
+-1 holy sabotage Analyst 1 in IB - Cov
+-1 Don't choose a job because of the hours pitchdeck
+-1 All the schools are undercounted by 30-50%. Penn, NYU, Indiana, and Michigan are easily over 100 kids per year Analyst 1 in IB - Gen
+-1 I hope you do get fat. Analyst 2 in IB - Cov
+-1 You need to be making $300,000 post-tax by age 24 otherwise you are basically invisible to women PhantomGhost
+-1 Why don’t you email Kasey then Analyst 2 in IB-M&A
+-1 The caliber of UF students at EVR much better than you really think 2 SA243 SA252 SA265 SA27 Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
+-1 If you want a serious answer, you play arbitrage. Before everyone freaks out, I am talking about real estate arbitrage and no not the spead on cap rate to debt.  I'll let you figure out what I mean by that. ioncewenttoschool
+-1 You're right. I was just thinking about the stereotypes of the schools but this shows NYU to be in line with top targets in quality Analyst 1 in IB - Gen
+-1 most likely investor relations  Prospect in IB - Gen
+-1 Kinda building on this, as someone who's going into IB and want to go into HF space. What is the typical outcome for those who wash out of HFs entirely? Prospect in IB-M&A
+-1 People keep overblowing these “exit opps,” I can’ imagine how much harm it’s done to naive college students not knowing how little lies on the other side of the grind. Also, what “valuable skills” does it teach? arossi11637

+-1 If I ignore the flaws of your critique for a min, what's your point here? What should these "not smart people" do instead? nutmegger189
+-1 What kind of hardo highschool do you go to?? Amazon Prime
+-1 LOL it’s honestly not that crazy, just that some people have done a bit of reading and have a rough idea of what interests them. But yeah, rather passionate crowd relatively and certainly well read. sp1313
+-1 I chose not to attend stern because of the shit alum network and hordes of bugmen lil buddy green_duck
+-1 A few that come to mind. One guy kept asking to see those cannons. Weird. Other one ordered a tall boy at 9am in the morning and slammed it. Safe to say we gave him a referral. Associate 2 in PE - Growth
+-1 Congratulations on Cornell StandardHardo
+-1 Brother, I bet you have wrinkles in your shirt right now. RECorp54
+-1 My two cents, as a nerd with no social skills, you probably belong in IB as a slide monkey. S&T means you actually have to sell or trade securities to your clients. JamieDimonkey
+-1 Based on the most helpful WSO content, here are some insights into Citi's groups in NYC that might be worth avoiding due to culture or other challenges: WSO Monkey Bot
+-1 But you literally just said the people in IB are not smart enough to go into STEM so which is it? Also half the jobs you mentioned suffer from the same problems as what you critiqued IB for.  nutmegger189
+-1 It’s not “great money” as analysts work 2-2.5x the hours and barely make 2-2.5x what STEM graduates do. And no, the “exit opps” are a myth. Ironically, STEM careers’ exit opps include finance, the opposite isn’t true. arossi11637
+-1 arossi11637
+-1 Surprised the most racist guy you know isn't also the nicest - that's usually the case Raijin
+-1 because this ranking does not include the amount of people who are unemployed.  VP in IB - Gen
+-1 Your question is terribly worded, but this is the type of thing investment banks or private bankers will do. MMPM
+-1 You could do a day shift job and night shift job. Regardless, I think it’s ridiculous to justify working that many hours for the tiny chance of becoming rich. arossi11637
+-1 So is the NBA. That doesn’t mean that it’s likely. The vast vast majority starting on the IB career path, assuming they get in out of undergrad, will never make it there. arossi11637
+-1 How tf did you intern at an EB in your first year summer? Prospect in Private Credit
+-1 I graduated already. Don’t worry, your resume wouldn’t even be considered here, buddy. arossi11637
+-1 Coloring books Analyst 1 in IB - Cov
+-1 Sure. On a per-hour basis. But I don't pay rent based on my per-hour income. I don't put money in my savings accounts based on my per-hour income.  jl12
+-1 True, but you health does. Ask the families of the bankers that died. That’s your decision. arossi11637
+-1 To the first point: These are just examples, as was asked of me. arossi11637
+-1 Lots of alpha to be captured in: GooningMogging RetardmaxxingEdgingChadmaxxingMotionmaxxingMewingMikeMentzermaxxingNancyPelosimaxxing Associate 1 in IB - Gen
+-1 Get ready to put on that Wendy’s hat 99twotwo1
+-1 I think you might be confused, I’m writing for a first year student, I’m a second year student signed for summer 2026 at a top EB in London. alexcokke
+-1 Maybe. I'm pretty sensitive so I might be overreacting. Not to mention these things can be cultural. pbandjpartners
+-1 Someone will be left holding the bag and it’s a big bag. Private credit asmith_1
+-1 "I think you might be confused, I’m writing for a first year student, I’m a second year student signed for summer 2026 at a top EB in London. Prospect in Private Credit
+-1 The technology is already viable, what the fuck are you talking about? What do you think Starlink is? It is a networking backbone. A critical component of a data center.  ioncewenttoschool
+-1 Back in the day, I saw people transitioned out for less. This is a major mistake that you need to learn from immediately. Analyst 1 in IB - Gen
+-1 The guy who did both engineering and finance agrees with me. Cope harder. arossi11637
+-1 "Me saying it doesn’t pay well per hour, you make twice the salary for twice the hours ALREADY MEANS you make twice the money." (Internal quotations omitted). jl12
+-1 more FT spots is always a good thing… it’s a win win if you ever decide to go through with your urges buddy. If it’s that bad just change your mindset not that hard lma Intern in IB - Cov
+-1 Based on the most helpful WSO content, here's the explanation: WSO Monkey Bot
+-1 I went to a target school so I like to spend my time giving back to my alumni network through coffee chats and freelance MBA admissions consulting PhantomGhost
+-1 Infrastructure and other hard assets 100%. Investors love stable returns and I think with AI disruption it will be harder to underwrite tech and tech-enabled services businesses. Analyst 2 in IB - Cov
+-1 Nah 500k only requires him to make 5mm a year for it to be paid off in full which isnt hard with a wharton degree. within 10 years of graduating it will paid  off. So he should take on the debt. Associate 1 in IB-M&A
+-1 It's not a technical group. Modelling will be handled by LF. LDCM is more focused on syndicating the debt and feeling out market sentiment to structure the deal. Intern in IB-M&A
+-1 lmao this is just thinly veiled full endorsement  SOFRsoGood
+-1 Congrats on ubs 好好学习天天向上
+-1 Way too many of those and TNs in the NY office. Avoid the Cornell and shitty Canadian school grads Incoming Analyst in IB - Cov
+-1 are they doing well? seems like they didn't raise enough to reach their target last round Intern in IB - Gen
+-1 The point is that, mechanically, in a DCF model, you include the value from cash flows along the way into the overall value of the company. In an LBO model, only the terminal value is compared to the entry price. Prospect in IB - Cov
+-1 Any T25 private and top public schools will get interviews  xkz123
+-1 Intern in IB - DCMRotman has no US pipelines other than Dyal IIRC, and even that I’m not sure about after the TN crackdown. WaffleFalafel

+-1 RBC Tier 2 Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
+-1 Least obvious indian guy Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
+-1 For your goal of transitioning to Private Equity (PE) in Singapore, here’s what you need to consider based on the most helpful WSO content: Starting in Singapore IB vs. NY/London IB: WSO Monkey Bot
+-1 Another firm that is lucky that PE funds take 10+ years to die. Quirky (in the same way that Monomoy is just a bunch of weirdos who banded together and coined their eccentricity as being a "good culture" firm). Moonshallow
+-1 Heard lots of hc investors looking for jobs Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
+-1 Super good outside the Americas (exits to European MFs), but think it’s middle of the pack for NYC. Not a terrible outcome  Intern in IB - Gen
+-1 On the tech side Qatalyst in M&A and MS Menlo in ECM  Associate 2 in IB - Cov
+-1 lol a decent amount of PE firms in NYC are back to 5 days in office. Just FYI. I feel like there’s misconception that that it’s only psycho notorious WSO firms that do it. But that’s not true anymore. Associate 3 in PE - LBOs
+-1 I would probably highlight Qatalyst (M&A), GS SF TMT (M&A/ECM), and MS Menlo (ECM) - These tend to get the coolest deals, which for the most part are in the tech ecosystem (no offense to other sectors. Analyst 1 in IB - Gen
+-1 Haha ur chilling. As far as the club culture, it’s pretty cut throat. In one of the top ones myself, so know the AR for them. I know MII/AIF take 1 to 2 sophomores a year. VVF/GMG is open to more. Prospect in IB-M&A
+-1 good luck at deloitte PhantomGhost
