Got an interview offer from one of the big 4 IB Firms (GS/Citi/JPMC/MS). Good compensation but have to move to NY Should I go or refuse?

How old are you? $120k kind of sucks for banking in NYC but if you don't live in Manhattan you'll easily make it work financially. If you're young, it might be worth doing just to get your foot in the door & network your way to an actually-good job later.

You can survive on that, just don't be an r-slur and live in Manhattan. Also make sure you share insider information with your drama friends (if you get any, sounds like a low level position tbh)

It's not that much for NYC but you can prob get promotions and stuff right? It's better to think long term.

Go neighbor, none of your rdrama friends want to hear about how you almost worked with Goldman Sachs

Go, it's about time we had an insider in the globalist Jew conspiracy.

Do it for a year or two just to get it on your resume and have fun in NYC. The drawbacks of bug life are greatly lessoned if you have a real job

Plus, I hear the dating ratio in NYC is really distorted so men have an easy time dating attractive women

As long as you don't currently have a family, definitely do it. If you make it to associate you will be making 300k at least. You don't need to do IB your whole life. Depending on if this is in IB, research, sales and trading etc, you have different routes you could take to consulting, the buy side etc. You are probably going to have to work long hours so you do want a short commute, which means you are not going to have a spacious place. If you live somewhere in midtown it's not as bad as trying to be hip and living in the village. If you stay in NY long term, once the hours settle down, the wise move is to get the frick out of there and move to a suburb.

edit: the site you need to know is streeteasy.com

Voting go conditionally. Basically just needs to be upgrade from what you're currently doing.

Don't try and live paycheck to paycheck and think you need your own apartment. Max out 401K. Being a dramatard you probably won't make the cut when the next financial crisis comes, so set yourself up with money and things that improve your resume.

that sounds miserable. no amount of money is worth being a bugcel in the city

I hope to be poor in alaska someday instead

but a poor landchad ofc

for now I'm poor in and I pretty much have everything I could ever want

I made 120k in the Midwest at the beginning of my career.

Way better (even still) to make that in the Midwest than "having to" move to NYC.

KEEP YOURSELF SAFE

Big 4 IB? You mean bulge bracket?

What's your current profile? I'm assuming MBA going in as an analyst/associate (i forget what IB calls their b-word positions). If you know what you're getting into, the answer is obviously yes. If you don't, the answer is probably no.

NYC rocks if you have money dude just do it.

Literally like 99% of the complainers about NYC are poors who have to live in shitty apartments costing half their wages.

You won't be penthouse in Manhattan but you'll afford a nice place with transit access in like Brooklyn, and you'll be in a job where promotions really could afford you lower Manhattan.

Call them to let them know are turning down the job offer so it can be awarded to a woman of color. Whites are too fragile for NYC, anyway.

It's worth it, with roomates you can live somewhere very cheap especially outside of Manhattan but the former may not be an option for you form the sounds of things.

Make sure you get a place near a subway station to where you would be working.

That's what 25 year old cops make over there.

Never turn down a job interview though. They're always really fun and you can learn useful stuff

Don't be stupid, take the offer you mongoloid

You're dumb, I'm not going to sit around milking you all day. You posted something unfunny, get over it
