unreal otter

#

jany street

#

Wait I’m curious why u picked BW

#

And what’s IE?

#

I feel like Jane Street is the obvious choice here but maybe I’m missing something

#

Everyone has their reasons lol

#

js qt

unreal otter
#

Bro actually choose BW 💀

#

????

#

The bw internship does not pay "60-70"

#

Since it's 2 months long

#

Source: I was an IE intern there last year

#

Oh the RO rate for IE last year was not 60-70

#

This year the RO return rate was 25%

frozen hinge
#

that's worse than citadel lmao

#

r they not doing well?

frosty arch
#

😂

#

clearly gotta be squarepoint

crisp jolt
#

You only take BW if you like macro more than quant

frozen hinge
#

citadel was well below 50% too but everyone just kinda figured it would be hard

#

what was the eng culture like there also? i feel like i know very little about bw

crisp jolt
#

They've aggressively hired ex cit people for example

frozen hinge
#

rlly

#

i thought it was like a cult of like super intellectual debate type people

#

that like love reading idfk

buoyant laurel
#

wtf

#

you took bridgewater??

#

how can you land all these and make a move like that

#

its prob still ok for the most part

#

but jane street is clearly the best option here

warm belfry
#

the whole thing just seems realy confusing here

#

basically took bw SWE over js qt ?????

#

even if u really want swe can't you just ask for swe...

#

maybe js doesn't let you do that i dunno

crisp jolt
#

the IEs are a totally different type of cult

crisp jolt
warm belfry
#

is bw like a

#

sleeper firm

#

ppl taking bw over js trader and OAI

warm belfry
crisp jolt

#

why didnt u take it?

crisp jolt
#

since I'd already done internships at Scale AI and Stripe

#

water your thoughts hahahaha

#

Reneg

frozen hinge
#

bridgewater would drop you in a heartbeat to save their bottom line

#

take js

#

if u think ur cracked at trading this is so so so obvious

#

if u think it's unlikely js would give u RO then idk maybe u can consider playing it safe

#

no especially not like a week later

#

they're still recruiting they will be fine

#

if it was like a few weeks before internship it's a little worse

#

lmao fuck no

#

zero upside

#

and js would not pull ur offer anyway

#

ya bw has no reason to contact js

#

it could be some under the table recruiter network "oh vrob reneged us" but it wouldn't affect u

#

i mean i'm not a bridgewater recruiter u may want to confirm w/ @crisp jolt

#

but i highly suspect they would not contact js

#

there is no reason to

#

only a fat left tail of tortious interference lawsuit

storm kraken
#

don’t put it on ur LinkedIn

frozen hinge
#

and legitimately no benefit to them

#

that's also true

#

don't put it on LI until ur there

#

or after

storm kraken
#

but ur a genius for dropping it in discord so someone’s gonna tell them lmfao

#

yo

#

That IE intern who reneged

#

He’s at JS

#

lmfao

frozen hinge
#

yeah also js stalks this server

#

bro fumbled

#

idt bridgewater does tho

storm kraken
#

Now he’s backtracking

#

do DE and millennium even have qt??

frozen hinge
storm kraken
#

no ur not

frozen hinge
#

the concept of backtracking both the company and the role

#

what did u mean by this papa...

#

they are not going to email

storm kraken
#

u have a bigger issue w ppl here messaging

#

and not the firm

frozen hinge
#

i think it's unlikely someone from cscd would email bw and say hey that guy that just reneged u is going to js

#

i mean that can happen

#

just don't think ppl have the energy for that

#

some ppl are insane tho

#

more likely if this is js theyr'e reading this rn and kekeing

#

what did u mean by this then

#

is it on ur linkedin?

#

ur funny as fuck ngl

#

ur actually all over the place

#

i aspire to this level of inconsistency

crisp jolt
#

And asked me, over zoom call, why I was talking about the internship salary on Reddit 💀 (I explained I was just sharing public info)

frozen hinge
#

that's funny lmao

simple garnet
#

bridgewater

crisp jolt
#

Not really because if they actually rescinded due to that I wouldn't want to work there anyways

#

how does bridgewater know that you have JS?

#

did you tell them about it?

#

??

#

ig 5r qt is similar enough to js qt but desco prop trader is very different, and idt millennium even has traders
