What is the salary like at Balyasny Asset Management?

Good culture, great benefits and competitive pay. Dinners/events/extra-curricular activities often. Offices stocked with breakfasts/snacks/drinks, and free lunches

Lack of clear pathways for advancement/growth

Top-down human-centered management Talented employees Good pay, good benefits, good culture

No cons for this company.

Lots of perks and good pay but once you calculate your BTH rate you'll see it's not worth it. Smart colleagues.

Poor work/life balance. Night and weekend shifts. High-pressure environment.

The company culture is collaborative which is rare in Hedge Funds. Different team often work together but it’s limited to big PMs only.

- Most of the analysts work as glorified tech helps for PM with low chances of becoming a risk-taker (promoted as Associate PM) - The salaries / bonus payouts are very low compared to similar analyst roles at other hedge funds
