Accepting another SA offer as a backup
I have anSAoffer at anEBwhich I have signed--perfect location, industry, etc. I have another offer outstanding at a very low-tier bank on the opposite side of the country which I did not get throughOCRor alumni--nothing is keeping me there. I'm thinking about accepting this low-tier bank as a backup.
The logic is that anything can happen over the next 13 months. People can get screwed because their offer was reneged, and I don't want that to happen to me.

Do it. Do whatever is best for you, it's a kill or be killed cutthroat world out here
This is a bad idea. The upside is extremely limited, the downside is bad. People continue to disregard risk vs reward.
I agree with what the other person said about the risk. The chances that anEBpulls your offer and conditions are only bad for them is low. You are risking really pissing people off. Don't do it.
Seems like a very bad idea.
What is the upside? That in the event something happens to yourEBoffer, you'll have this lower tier backup? Let me ask you -- how often on this site, or anywhere, have you read about an offer from anEBor mid/topBBbeing rescinded(unless it's for grades/disciplinary reason)? I don't think that ever happens. What, you think the EB's going to go out of business?
But what ifEBfinds out you accepted another offer? Or other bank gets pissed when you renege, and wants to raise stink about it,EBfinds out and decides you're a person of bad character?
I've just never heard of person keeping a backup offer. Seems totally unnecessary, and will provide no realistic upside with a much greater potential for downside.
Surprised your being so casual about reneging when it's totally unnecessary.
I oscillate between this attitude and the one of the guy above that says "do it. do what's best for you". Sometimes I'm like you and sometimes I'm like him.
谢谢你input
Dude they're not going to find out haha it's across the country. Accept the damn offer and be safe with it dude. Do you want to buy your mom nice shit? Take the security
do what's best for you = don't take "backup offer" because you'll put your career in danger which is not good for you.
You're a prospect for a reason
Wouldn't do it.IBis a small world. MDs know each other at many firms as folks bounce around. Never know who you'll work with over next 30 years.
Also, reputableEBsdo not renege onSA. They have relationships with schools and alumni and they want this pipeline for the future. Would be insanely short sighted for anEBto renege on anSA. Maybe they would if they heard a candidate accepted two offers but not sure.
One of the stupidest ideas I've seen come from a Prospect when it come to internships and recruiting.
Do not do this. YourEBmay very well pull the offer if they find out...IBis a very small world and this could definitely get back to yourEBeven from a "low-tier" bank
Also, as said above, unless you have a felony or lied about your GPA or something similar, yourEBis not going to just randomly fire you. Even in the mess of 2020/covid, noEBs/BBsrenegedon any offers. The bank will only renege if you don't pass the background check or if you do precisely this accepting two offers.
This is so stupid wow. If you have a signedSAoffer with anEBstop recruiting. You think they're going bankrupt and going to screw an entire intern class??
