Grad advisor said it’s not great, don’t apply
Why is the Fed considered a bad placement at my grad school?
-
Which Fed? Board, Kansas City, bad for example. St Louis or Chicago great. I mean, St Louis vs Board is like comparing two different worlds.
Fed Board is great. 200K, stable job. Don’t need to work more than 20 hours/week
Board is NOT great. Minneapolis and St Louis are the best Feds. Chicago, Philadelphia, and Richmond are on the rung below. Board and NYFed are a step below them.

Disagree. MN Fed has gone woke. And, after seeing Ravi on St. Louis' recruitment video, I want to stay away from St. Louis Fed. I don't take pride in hanging around with social rejects whose only currency is the number of pubs.
Board and NY Fed are great. Well socialized and balanced people who don't claim to change the world through their day job.

If you spend a day at Chicago or Princeton you will also feel that it is full of unbalanced people and social rejects relative to a LAC with "well socialized" people who spend their days catering to undergrads. Better research means weirder colleagues. Each to their own.

Better research is not the only dimension to maximize on. At the end of the day, research is a job like any other job and I have a life to live.

The levels Of undergrad in this comments are off the charts. Weirdness is orthogonal with research quality.

life is not all about research quantity and quality. board is an amazing place to work at. great work-life balance, good salary, great city, no tenure stress. work is busy at times, but over the year as a whole, not that demanding.

Son, we live in a world that has departments, and those departments have to be guarded by men with models. Who's gonna do it? You? Ravikumar has a greater responsibility than you could possibly fathom. You dismiss the St. Louis Fed, and you curse Ravikumar. You have that luxury… -
