Good information on the website and a funny community, but be discerning and don't take everything as undisputed fact (which applies on any forum).

Excellent knowledge, tips and advice to advance your career and personal objectives. I would highly recommend it to everyone. Thank you

More fun than reddit and you get a lot of useful insights inside the financial industry. Just beware of how much time you spend in the app

Solid forum where you get insight into the finance industry. Seems to be self-policing in the fact that the BS gets called out somewhat. I think there's a lot of people who don't work in the industry (prospects/high schoolers etc) who act like they do and some of them end up on WSO which gets frustrating.

While the flow of valuable content seems to have slowed in recent years, the backlog of amazing posts has been a tremendous resource. I have found answers to just about every one of my recruiting/basic career questions. I have not had any experience with the paid courses/mentoring sessions etc, but have heard good things. Overall, highly recommended.

WSO is a very useful website for students and aspiring finance professionals, but false/biased information exists given that it is a public forum. It is impossible to verify everyone's posts and comments, so using a variety of sources in combination with WSO will be the most helpful. I checked WSO throughout my finance recruiting process in my undergrad years a lot, and it was one of the most up-to-date and useful sources on interview timelines, when people received offers, compensation, etc. That said, there was a lot of misinformation / biases against certain firms, jobs, locations, etc. that are spread by other students who don't know any better - so learning to filter through this misinformation and using other sources (i.e., real coffee chats) should be best practice.

Informative and entertaining

Great UI for the platform. Community is a solid mix of serious, funny and informative. Ive enjoyed my time so far being a part of WSO. Would recommend for anyone wanting to communicate with individuals in the finance community.
