Hi, I'm a new grad and currently have offers for a hedge fund (think IMC, HRT caliber) as well as Brex. I'm not really sure between the two. The hedge fund seems to have good WLB, and is relatively stable (I don't mind being able to spend money without worrying too much). However, Brex seems to have more growth opportunities and higher upside. Hedge Fund (HCOL): - ~310k TC first year, ~260k afterwards Brex (Remote first): - 200k TC (going with 120 base/80 stonks) EDIT: Please comment your reasoning if you have any, I would greatly appreciate it :) #tech #newgrad #fintech #trading #hedge #brex
Stfu and get that prop trading money and experience. Congrats my friend, you’re doing great
Brex sucks huh?
IMC and HRT are not the same caliber
HRT and IMC aren’t hedge funds. Nor are HRT and IMC the same caliber as each other. HRT wouldn’t make an offer that low and IMC wouldn’t make an offer that high.
Maybe this means OP is doing a good job preserving anonymity? :) Separate: Are you sure $260+$50 signon is really below HRT new grad range? I saw a HRT industry offer (from F/G) in another Blind thread with a $300 number. (I agree they're not hedge funds! Just separately curious if $310 is really below HRT's new grad band.)
Yea it is below. Quant doesn’t really value tech experience much (and vice versa) so offers for 0-5 yoe are pretty similar. HRT comp for new grads is over 300 recurring
