Friends. Desperately looking to connect with someone who works at Apollo in New York. Or can connect me with somebody who does. I wanna talk to them about what it’s like there before I accept a position. I feel like the base salary they offer is quite low, but my recruiter keeps going on and on about the built-in overtime and how people often end up making double their salary because of this. I need to learn more about this before I accept an offer and make a mistake. Anyone have any insight?

A few months ago, the recruiting agency was really pushing me to interview with Apollo. I told them that with my current 9-to-5 schedule, I didn’t see much value in moving to a role that would require me to work from 8:30 to 5:30 pm. The pay increase wasn’t substantial enough to make the longer hours worthwhile.
Ultimately, I received an offer from a major tech company to support a founder, and the compensation was almost double what Apollo was offering.
I’d recommend continuing your search until you find a job that feels right and doesn’t leave you questioning whether it’s the right move. Of course, that’s assuming you’re currently employed and not in a situation where you urgently need a job.

I wouldn’t trust words. You can wait for the job offer and look at the final number stated there, and then make your decision. If the final amount is $140K and not $200K, then I wouldn’t believe that you’ll actually be making $200K

I would not want to work overtime just to make a decent living. They take almost 40% in taxes right off the top. My time away from work is more important than that.
