Summer '26
Belvedere Trading QD (Chicago)
Pay : low $60s
Anduril SWE (Costa Mesa / Boston)
Pay: low $50s with $3000/mo housing
Stripe SWE (NYC)
Pay : low $60s with housing covered
Belvedere is "quant" and in Chicago not much else that I can say about it. Anduril is booming right now and a really cool company and really prestigious and a ton of potential growth. Stripe is very prestigious dk about growth prospects but in NYC which is my fav location.
I care about:
- prestige (resume value)
- career prospects / exit ops
- location
Notes
- I do not care about intern pay at all
- Dont care about RO that much
- might try to re-recruit for quant next summer but still leave other options open as well
I am leaning towards NYC because thats where my friends are but I also care about the other things. Would love some opinions here. Thanks!
