Pros

I went to attended several meetings at VC and PE firms, and worked on reports that were sent out to over 1,00 clients.

Cons

The pay as an intern was terrible. $500 a month. Don't know if they've changed this, but it's ridiculous. Analysts burned out quickly.

Pros

AGC puts a ton of responsibility on you early on. You learn to be a professional early on and it embodies that 5 years of experience compressed into 1 year. You carry the weight behind a lot of the modeling and workstreams. Bigger firms distribute that responsibility to multiple groups, but AGC really puts it on you. It can be stressful and nerve racking but once you get the hang of it especially with the guidance of your VP and Associate, it feels empowering (i.e. proceeds waterfall or customer file analysis) Live deal engagement. AGC brings on a ton of the growth- stage late venture companies. So you get a lot of exposure to businesses post-VC investment or bootstrapped on the forefront of technology. It also means learning to get gritty just like these entrepreneurs. Lots of senior attention, work pretty closely with Partners on the deal on a daily basis. Some are more personable than others but all are willing to teach.

Cons

AGC has always been a place with a lot of hours required but you're trying to distill 5-7 years of experience in 1-2 years

Pros

I thoroughly enjoyed my internship at AGC Partners, finding it to be an incredibly rewarding experience for which I am genuinely grateful. From the outset, I was eager to gain hands-on experience in investment banking, specifically focusing on the tech sector. Over the course of the 8-week internship, I significantly enhanced my understanding of tech investment banking. My responsibilities as an intern encompassed a diverse range of tasks, including training assignments, active involvement in live deal work, and the creation of a research whitepaper. The training sessions, led by enthusiastic analysts and associates, played a crucial role in deepening my investment banking knowledge. AGC's management consistently collaborated with me to ensure a well-balanced workload, offering a supportive environment that encouraged learning. What stands out to me about AGC is the exceptional team. The entire staff is not only highly intelligent but also deeply passionate about their work. There is a tangible sense of camaraderie within the tight-knit team, fostering a collaborative and engaging work atmosphere. Additionally, each intern is paired with a mentor, typically an analyst, providing valuable guidance and support throughout the internship. Furthermore, AGC's commitment to fostering a positive work culture is evident in the frequent opportunities for socializing at company outings. These occasions allowed for meaningful interactions beyond work, contributing to the overall positive and inclusive work environment at AGC Partners.

Cons

As expected in the industry, hours can be long and may fluctuate based on deal activity. However, late nights are invaluable in bringing the team closer together. I look back at the late night grinds as some of my fondest memories. I should also add that AGC facilitates a very healthy environment and encourages the team to work out at the in-office gym during down time.
