you don't have financial exp and would like to pursue your career in
financial industry, take Barclays's. After gaining a few year exp in
financial industry, you can play the game of "The Wall Street Shuffle". |

NEW YORK (AP) -- Verizon Communications Inc., the nation's largest wireless
carrier, said Monday its second-quarter profit fell 21 percent as cost-
cutting in its wireline business failed to keep pace with falling revenues.
The company will be cutting more than 8,000 employee and contractor jobs
before the end of the year in the wireline business, speeding up its efforts
to keep costs in line, according to chief financial officer John Killian. |

Which group of Barclays extended your the offer? Equity, fixed income, or
research center?
If your role is production support, your life will be tough anywhere.

发帖数: 15860 | 10 GC or not?
wife's status? (working with good income, working with minimum wage, staying
home,...)
family status? (how many kids? age? day care/grandparents? mortgage?...)
other factors? (commute, group size, location, recent projects, short-term
expectations, ...)
much more than CFA or financial industry or easy life.
you're asking a similar question like "should i date hot girl A or rich girl
B?"

发帖数: 8 | 11 Yes, I know Verizon is cutting ppl now. That is the reason that I waited for
one and half month and finally got the offer as the senior financial
analyst.
I have two children( daycare age). My husband want to take the Verizon offer
. I only need to commute 40 mins for Verizon, while Barclays is in the city.
Thanks.

benefits and salary.
If you are going to their wireless business, no worries about job security I
think

If you really want to get into financial world, absolutely BGI. But as you
said, be prepared for the long hours and the instability that might follow
in this career path.
I don't know what position you got in Verizon. If it's corporate finance,
this direction definitely gives you a more easily transferrable path in a
long run.
For the other issues, family, kids and commute, your husband should the be
person you discuss this with but not the people |

发帖数: 121 | 16 说实话，这世上没有安全的地方。你觉得verizon安全清闲，其实可能完全是钱少也不
安全。相反barclay也不一定有想像中那么可怕。
自己的兴趣爱好更重要。
你老公应该支持你的选择。比如搬家请保姆什么的。
anyway,congratulations to your offers! 羡慕！ |

发帖数: 567 | 17 Verizon is nice place to work, but it just cuts 8000 people this week. And
Barclay, depends on which group your offer is in, for example, my friend
needs to get up 6:00AM every morning, for they meet every day at 7:30AM |
