Who to avoid in finance

Why PM at Washington? Because he is a low talker?
PM at Washington, GB at Maryland, BK at Booth, AL at NYU, MOH and AK at Cornell, and so many others. Honestly, finance academia is sleazier than industry (bonuses incentivize working together) and any other academic field. I regularly shock my friends telling them about the crap that goes on in finance academia.

PM is a walking harassment case. He cannot be left alone with Asian women and it got bad enough that (supposedly) this was an order from the chair. He doesn't just leave it in the interview room though: invites to dinner to "discuss research" or offer his insight as a journal editor and all sorts of other sleazy moves. I know multiple women who I have expected to out him in the recent spate of such outings.

I've heard this. I could see him being really aggressive and tough to get along with and supposedly they put his office far away from others.

Smells like a jealousy attack

Too aggressive?
Bryan Kelly
The OP is way off base. BK gives off an aggressive aura in seminar, but he's tremendously personable and thoughtful one on one. He's a great community member.
I agree with this. Willing to listen and give feedback. Have been around much worse.

BK might be a little aggressive, but in a helpful way:)

Unless you are a young and cute lady please avoid LZ @Booth. Or well, maybe it's exactly the young and cute ladies who should avoid him. Your call.
Are you talking about the self-satisfied, middle-aged, balding dude who dyes his hair? Eewww. Not hard to avoid.

seconded. the guy is always smiling but completly self-centered and will do everything to get what he wants.
Are there any people in finance that are known to be huge assholes or creeps? Anyone that APs and grad students should avoid?
try everything to avoid Lin Cong@Booth, unless you want to be taken advantage of and get stabbed at your back.
