+-1 It's stolen work, repackaged into sloppy hallucinations. Ozymandia
+-1 Def try for EB, agree with you on the MM concerns. Think you’ll get a lot of questions and they might pass you over bc you’re “over-qualified” Analyst 2 in IB - Cov
+-1 Sometimes they will lie to your face and offer promise until the last day. Prepare to re-recruit just in case and start networking early.  powerpointmonkey19

+-1 Where would you put Piper? Midstream_BusDev

+-1 So, in essence... banks should not hire people they consider as more capable in order to give more opportunities to a specific group of people? Are you asking for your own form of DEI? Bruvver
+-1 This place is going downhill. Don't need to hear about how you are too much of a loser to get a job. Just gitgud lol. m_1

+-1 Please, if you're below the age of 25-26 do not touch AI when just getting started in your buyside seat. As tempting as it is, you are too young to outsource your brain before ever learning how to be an investor. loud_bathroom
+-1 Impossible to make plans with family/friends/significant other due to the fact that you can be called in at any time.  GS under Blankfein
+-1 Yes of course, just join any team the platform itself is distressed Associate 2 in PE - LBOs

+-1 Some offers out I heard Investment Manager in HF - Event

+-1 “My personal investment philosophy leans toward long-term value” Investment Analyst in HF - EquityHedge

+-1 CVP does not pay Aso1 $200k base – but A2A retention bonus is $200k. Base is around ~$170-180k Analyst 2 in IB-M&A

+-1 This is amazing. VP in IB - Cov
+-1 push - any perspectives also for GHL london? GoPikachu
+-1 No such thing as a “deal” you like a property it makes sense and you move forward. You will learn more as an operator than plugging numbers into excel Analyst 1 in RE - Other

+-1 Echoing some of the comments above, def apply to every bank but culture wise its very dependent on the team itself which comes from the MDs Associate 2 in IB - Cov
+-1 The difference is showing already, but for women they dont matter. Simply say it how it is. loser1234
+-1 You cannot get into IB/PE/Consulting without speaking Dutch in Netherlands (from my experience as a Spanish person who did my bachelor there).  Prospect in Acct - Other
+-1 I have not heard many good things from the french business schools apart from HEC. ESCP / ESSEC, might also be questionable. loser1234
+-1 Not to advocate here, know GHL is not what it used to be but just last year they advised on the 15bn BlacHills-NorthWestern merger, 10bn 3G Capital/Sketchers acquisition, 9bn Brookfield/Colonial Enterprises acquisition... Analyst 2 in IB - Cov
+-1 Yes, this is older thread, but are there any other articles or bloggers with a similar feel? Would love some recommendations if so. elmago24

+-1 I started networking when I was in grade 12 (senior year of hs) - highly recommend. intern8897
+-1 My first instinct was $120M too, but after thinking about it, I don't think the debt should be counted the same as the equity raise. Amelia F
+-1 JPM LevFin is paradise Analyst 1 in IB - Restr
+-1 Apparently they've returned capital on the first two deals in the smaller fund (2024 vintage) within 18 months. if you look at the public company filings, that smaller fund was up 30%+ after a year. economyisland
+-1 Seems BofA is doing much better this year (in total IB fee terms) with a lower IB headcount. I’d not be surprised to see BofA bumping up bonuses significantly this year.  gelato_cuspids1d

+-1 Agreed, thank you so much genuinely I came steaming in with the completely wrong perception of how to do the job, wish someone had said it like that earlier.  Prospect in IB - Gen

+-1 Man there are some absolute losers on this website. Who went through and threw monkey shit at every single comment?  IsItREPE

+-1 Keep throwing ms from ur 5k/mo nyc shoebox bud. Can smell the rogaine thru my phone deelcheef
+-1 Helpful information. A reliable Mobile App Development Company Dubai should focus on scalable solutions, user experience, and ongoing support to help businesses grow over time. teqnovos
+-1 99% sure that the answer is no. IB roles almost always say Investment banking Summer Analyst. Not just summer analyst, which usually pertains to some back office gig. coolmonkey67
+-1 Largely viewed as stuck as a monkey and not MD material Analyst 3+ in IB - Cov
+-1 BofA numbers out this Friday (July 24) dunkaroo007

+-1 Sure, whatever suits you, let’s do Affirmative Action so more UNQUALIFIED Americans can get high finance jobs, perfect, isn’t it? How Soviet is that lenoxhillrunner

+-1 you're crazy brodie OFFERGOBLIN

+-1 Should be careful a lot of banks will only hire you back as an MBA associate Associate 1 in IB - Cov

+-1 If pensions were any good at investing direct, they wouldn't need to allocate.  PrivateTechquity 🚀🚀🚀
+-1 Stay at Erasmus university. Great Value for money. The MSc in Quantitative Finance is great. You can find a good job in the Netherlands with just english. boib_1
+-1 "Murica First" rednecks gonna be real quiet about this one Soros_
+-1 The biggest loser from this list is PJT M&A. RSSG doing $100mm from in-court debtor mandates means they did $200mm+ after including creditor mandates and OOC sponsor debtor mandates which are their bread-and-butter. tubularman
+-1 It's tough right after it happens but you'll be fine in a few weeks. There are plenty of women out there and you're young. kiltedlowlander
+-1 Well, based on the octus article, the value-add of PJT's creditor side work was so small that it's essentially de minimis. That 113m is about all there is. Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
+-1 sir this is a wendy's asmith_1
