+-4 I’m not a Trump sycophant by any means, but I don’t really feel bad about Massie getting primaried. His opposition to OBBB and overall purist libertarianism make him a useful idiot of the left IMO.  larry david
+-4 . Prospect in IB-M&A
+-4 He's a pro-Russia, anti-border protection RINO that consistently voted against his party. Of course he got primaried. Trump was shitting all over him on the way out. craigmcdermott
+-4 I guess we differ on the definition of substance. Nothing you’ve written here is substantive. It’s regurgitating talking points from closeted incel YouTube Groypers. WSOBURNER69

+-4 Nobody’s fucking proving anything you imbecile mongrel, I am, I am the fucking winner, you lost Intern in IB - DCM
+-4 What else is interesting is that all you ECM / M&A superiorists have no clue about the ethical prowess of DCM. Intern in IB - DCM
+-4 Precisely 3 MS on every comment. Thats, alt. Accounts. Intern in IB - DCM
+-4 More MS, this time scattered. It’s obvious how you’re trying to conceal it. My bank has now promoted me to Associate. Intern in IB - DCM
+-4 This is just not true lmao. PWP's dealflow is not nearly as good as you think and avg. analyst will exit to MM PE just as much from BofA as from PWP (probs even more likely) Intern in IB - Gen
+-4 Without location in mind, LSE blows almost any US school out of the water, ie placing like Wharton in Europe as the top feeder. alexcokke
+-4 UBS is #7 in ECM deals Q1’26 - look at FT league tables - literally ahead of Barclays  VP in IB - Cov
+-4 @thebrofessor brofessor Isaiah_53_5 💎🙌💎🙌💎
+-4 Least obvious Prometheus Capital ‘analyst’ selling their own shit investment club Analyst 2 in PE - LBOs
+-4 It's $1.5mm cash including bonus and $2-4 DAW for principal laka
+-4 Again not $500k laka
+-4 Ignore all of these H1-B comments. They are from losers who can’t compete for the job. Realistically, there is nothing wrong with asking. They might say no but then you have to leave it at that or find a new job. Analyst 3+ in IB - Cov
+-4 There is frustration regarding firms that observe federal and market holidays but ignore Juneteenth, which many feel sends the wrong message. khan.mmua
+-4 Thankfully you don’t have a chance. Also get the fuck out of this country, we don’t need people like you hsjdndjj
+-4 well GS IND is not one of the best groups in banking... Analyst 2 in IB - Cov
+-4 If you ask someone in the UK what an Asian is, they will immediately picture a Chinese, Korean or Japanese. Partner in IB - Gen

+-4 Absolutely stupid comment doesn't know anything boib_1
+-4 Totally disagree. ESCP is only a target in france full stop... Avoid it boib_1
+-4 Spain. Messi is the GOAT, but the rest of the Argentinian team are trash and infuriating to watch. I wanted to see France vs. England in the final, but both shit the bed in different ways.  CRE
+-4 EVR is better than LAZ, who tf cares about LAZ Intern in IB - Cov
+-4 Can ppl also share hours worked on average throughout the year to get a better sense of $ / hour and how much effort needed for top bucket? Analyst 1 in IB - Cov
+-4 nothing yet - I would expect an interview with my profile so I will keep you guys updated  AR1123
+-4 😂 LBOLegendChed67
+-4 Not really - it's actually relaxing compared to local offices. I found recruiting, Uni exams (if youre at a serious school) and other activities significantly more stressful / taxing than the work itself. Prospect in IB-M&A
+-4 CNBC is quoting on second hand information from hearsay. Honestly if its not obvious at this point that I know exactly what went on with SA, then I dont know what to say. VP in S&T - Equities
+-4 If you like a flash card format, IB Vine is a clear favorite. It also has a “reported in interviews” bank. Best of luck! AdviceMonkey10
+-4 Yeah, but from a finance/modeling perspective, it's pretty straight forward MMM6969
+-4 Analyst at top team in BB in London Intern in CorpFin
+-4 How relevant are the Capital Interview Experts questions for ft rounds FlowStateFX
+-4 yeah the questions are pretty relevant for FT recruiting, a few of them came up in my interviews. I used the course and thought it was helpful, so would recommend it DeltaRidge
+-4 Good luck with FT recruiting! Intern in IB - Gen
+-4 What we are slowly doing by getting rid of the Ivy League requirement is killing prestige since naturally over time the idea of doing ib as a learning experience goes down when someone from bama is working there since it’s Intern in ER
+-4 Wharton would have been a tougher pill to swallow? Ok tool. Smoke Frog
+-4 Anonymous Monkey: The upsides are way more than those minor points you mentioned: Incoming Analyst in IB-M&A
+-4 You are a DEI Becky. Corporate US and Canada is your oyster. Ask and daddy MD shall reward you. Make sure you deliver that hawk Tuah after he gifts you expensive wine.  Director in IB - Cov
+-4 You are both wrong, if you weren’t posting as anon I would happily dm you a picture of my bonus paystub to prove you (and the rest of this WSO forum) wrong  Director in IB - Cov
+-5 Del Incoming IB SA
+-5 Get a job in BB, Director, before shting online. Analyst program in bb follows a 2 year cycle. If you leave by the end of contract due to no extension, u naturally roll off on agreed date. omega303
+-5 Yes I did. You got a problem with it?  paulyoungettem
+-5 You know, I don't post here much but I'm going to hop on and post under my real name. Ozymandias is hiding behind a screen name because he'd never make such an inflammatory and insane comment publicly. Ozymandia
+-5 AlexCookBackpedaling hard now. What's your real name? Ozymandia
+-5 Amen.  We should all condemn violence of any sort, and maybe especially targeted political violence. Ozymandia
+-5 NoEquityResearchI don't think he really had that many "controversial" views at all. This is just a buzz word to somehow excuse his death. financeabc
+-5 kiltedlowlanderI'm not sure what your threshold is for "small number of individuals," but 2 separate attempts on a presidential candidate, Ozymandia
+-5 thoughts and prayers to his family if only there were a clear and obvious solution to this issue that other countries have implemented with great success Dominic Toretto
+-5 Highly suggest the Canary Wharfian website's HireVue practice. It has 50+ actual interview questions and AI will review your answer and suggest how to improve info_202
+-5 All are mid...  boib_1
+-5 Honestly try to apply to Dauphine or UCD.  boib_1
+-5 Dogshit/ASS tier firm. Go to MS Menlo, Q, Goldman TMT, Evercore M&A even Jefferies Tech or DB Tech over that place.   Analyst 3+ in IB-M&A
+-5 Tough spot. Ask yourself what a potential recruiter would have to judge you on come application time:* A-levels* Y1 Grade (non-1st = fail)* Extracurriculars (society stuff, pitch competitions or whatever, etc) Prospect in Consulting
+-5 del Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
+-5 Don't agree with the assesement above only LBS, LSE and Oxford are worth it in the UK. In france, Dauphine, HEC and ESSEC are the ones worth it. The rest is semi-target at most. boib_1
+-5 you're not even from the UK (based on your post history) so stfu with all that social media crap Associate 1 in IB - Gen
+-5 he has outperformed everyone... shows how the professionals sometimes suck and retail is smart. have to be commercial and trade mkt in front of you instead of focusing on fundies too much to make $  HFPM15
+-5 too much cope/seethe in this thread. even today, names like ionq/oklo up while market is down. shows value of buying thematic names instead of whats cheap or "good business" HFPM15
+-5 I have no shame and nothing to hide - bring it on. The country is going absolutely insane with the lack of common sense and nasty people who abuse that. pbandjpartners
+-5 ESCP is not even in tier 2 with Warwick but tier 3 with Durham and Bristol  boib_1
+-5 Accept the VC offer. Within high finance, many actually view top-tier VC as the more selective and aspirational track — even associates at MF PE firms often covet a strong VC exit. The reason is twofold: Principal in PE - Other
+-5 Your 30 bro. Failed as an analyst and couldn't stay at either bank for more than about a year. You've had a decade to make it and the opportunity is gone. Move on. Risk Weighted Ass
+-5 Because bankers are their client's bitch as they should be. I sure as hell don't want to do all that work ;) jl12
+-5 Corny ahh post Intern in IB - Cov
+-5 I was banned from commenting for like half a year for simply participating in shittalking about censorship. FastNotSoFurious
+-5 You guys are all wrong about me. I am not thay random underperformer who is just there to collect the paycheck and have no interest in the job. Polon
+-5 Yes it's still gossip. If there was an HR concern OP should talk to HR. Or even post here as a last resort. But this is just for shits giggles. VP in IB - Gen
+-5 The fuck is wrong with you VP in IB - Gen
