Straight brag
This guy's favorite movie is definitely wolf of wall street
I'm still surprised that MC got made, so many good actors + a good story.
Let’s see some comp numbers and complete the humble brag

Both of these offers are low but actually some MF do pay closer to MM than others. I know some that are still <300.
What matters more to you OP? Value creation in mostly private markets or trading in public markets ?

Has already been said but the right answer is Tiger > MF PE > Citadel. The firms can’t be Apollo and KKR or Tiger because their TC is all higher than what you quoted (sidenote: 220 for HF TC is incredibly weak). Your comment on Tiger being more volatile than Citadel is wildly off. Citadel cuts whole pods overnight - I know 2 people who went MF PE -> Citadel who got fired <1 yr. Unless you have a Tiger offer all the HF options will be open to you after PE. Happy hunting!
Spot on about entire pods getting shot. Other issue with mega PE is you’re likely to be pushed out to get MBA after associate role. Some stay for VP but prob more likely to get pushed out vs. HFs don’t care about MBA. Assuming you’re talking Tiger Global and not another Cub, feels like that has the most potential stability, and prob highest prestige. Tiger team is small relative to the others where you’re small fish in a big pond.

Big difference between Citadel and Tiger - would choose Tiger>MF>Citadel
Perhaps but given where you’re getting offers you might just be a good candidate. Take your humble brag to tiger and run with it
HF with your eyes closed
Citadel is not in the same league as Tiger…
Cornell slander will not be tolerated
HF more fun more risky. But not that risky. Let’s be real
Everyone’s saying HF but isn’t it only going to get increasingly difficult to generate Alpha with high frequency trading becoming more dominant in the market? Unless OP has skills suited for that, wouldn’t that make HF job less attractive?
Caveat, I know very little about PE / HF other than having some friends who work in it
HF is always gonna be king if you can perform unless you're a PE Partner which Is rare
Those comp figures are not for an associate. Can't be.
Is analyst offer a guaranteed promote to assoc program? Why take an analyst offer when you could wait a year and recruit on cycle for associate positions
