How much do you guys pay for rent on a monthly basis? I’m not interested in buying, living in a HCOL city. Paying about 4K a month for a one bedroom. Got the view and other perks. Too much?

Think the rule is 30% of your after tax income - Assuming you clear 200k prob fine. Still seems egregious.

…You’re paying 4k a month but aren’t in a HCOL city? Seems like that’s only justifiable in NYC and LA, especially for a one bedroom

Interesting all the noise about these PPT, my take:

The pandemic took all the upside of an IB analyst life (client meetings in person, fancy trips, suit up, worshiped at networking events) and left all the juniors with the downside (long hours, monkey-like type of job, aggressive work environment).

Not that the complaints are not sort of legitimate but you may need to revise the decision-making process that led you to accept a return offer. Specially if you were looking for less hours.
