What job should my banker friend take?
He's currently a VP at Goldman Sachs in its tech/media/telecom group in NYC. TC in 2017 was 550k. He likes the job but is burned out from the hours. After interviewing, he received offers in corporate development from the following firms. I don't know the TC, but he said they're all lower than what he's making now. Oath, NYC Uptake, Chicago Dropbox, SF Netflix, LA Snapchat, LA
Nflx
This is a ibanking salary. I do corporate m&a and it is lower but life is better. It depends on him what he likes. Some ppl can live the Adrenaline life
Bankster? Definitely Uber
How many years of experiencd?
Netflix
Nflx, go to the beach
Netflix
Netflix 100%, also best location (edged out by Snap technically but w/e)
What's so great about Netflix location?
Netflix and Snap offers are both in LA-- perfect weather, beaches, million things to do. Snap is in Venice, which I would prefer commuting to over the Netflix office (Hollywood). Netflix is the better company though for sure An ex-banker with a bunch of money would love living in LA
Yoe?
What are his current hrs/wk?
Around 80-90 hours per week, including weekends. He's always on call, super stressed. He has aged like a decade in the last few years.
Crazy. NFLX would be my top choice.
