I wish I could compare this curve to comp in finance. It seems like a lot of money until you realize PE firms/hedge funds/banks are offering fresh MBAs +$200K

I wish I could compare this curve to comp in finance. It seems like a lot of money until you realize PE firms/hedge funds/banks are offering fresh MBAs +$200K a year. I'm not saying finance is better, it's just a data point to put things in perspective.
- mahyarm 15y agoI hear the hours can get even more ridiculous in finance, and you have to live with new york weather. How do they get those offers from those firms?
- gnosis 15y agoThe hours can get ridiculous, but they vary from company to company. Also, the hours usually get a lot better as you gain seniority. On the other hand, you do have to put up with being surrounded by people who pretty much live to make money, and think about nothing but work and making more money. Though that might not be so different than Silicon Valley.
