I don't know about remote (No finance firms I know of would allow that), but I haven't even graduated from college and I make good good money working as a quant at a bank. Maybe you don't want to wear a suit and tie each day (I do and I think it makes me looking fresh as fuck), but finance hasn't been a backwater in a while. Maybe there's no slide and free haircuts, but there's something better: cash money baby.

Strangely always devolves into a length measuring contest around things like clothes and income.

Even stranger is how quiet that space gets when the firm hits a couple of red quarters.

Nothing like underperformance to remind the plebes where they sit in the hierarchy of “sweet cash money” versus partners and investors ;-)

(Also if you know a tech company that will install a slide and a barber at my house, could you PM me their name? First I’ve heard of that)
