Cerberus Capital Management: IB program?

Is this considered a top destination after an Investment Banking program?

How does the comp compare to Bstone, Carlyle, KKR, etc?

With regards to prestige, is Cerberus considered equal to those firms?

Cerberus is definitely up there, esp. with its recent acquisitions. You may be able to find some people on Doostang (www.doostang.com) who work for the firm, so PM me if you would like an invite to join the network.

Cheers, V

 

have a doostang membership. no one with cerberus listed as a job has their background listed. do people from top 3,4 Ibanking firms consider Cerberus a top destination?
