Does anyone know how good the Citi tech group is in Palo Alto?
Also vs bank of america how does it stack up in TMT and if you had BOFA real estate or Citi Tech which would you take? How about Citi Tech and BOFA TMT?
Also does anyone commute from SF to Palo Alto for work as an IBD analyst, is it possible?
Thx!

Commute via car from SF to Palo Alto will take AT LEAST 45 minutes in the morning, coming from SF down 101S. This is under best case scenario (e.g. - you live at the southern end of SF, and traffic is not too heavy). Heavy and unexpected gridlock causes many a sane man to lose it, so you'd have to be a brave soul to weather the traffic 5 out of the 7 days of the week. Not to mention if you're doing IBD, those are valuable potential sleep hours you're cutting into.
Also, please don't topic-spam in the future. It's an easy way to have people not want to respond.

Citi-West sucks... BofA TMT sucks and will likely get replaced by Merrill bankeres soon, since Woody Young's the man... BofA Real Estate was okay, but real estate market sucks right now... looks like you're in a lose-lose.
so if BofA TMT gets replaced by Merrill bankers, wouldn't that make it a desirable group to start out as an analyst in?
Not if his offer is from BofA and not from Merrill... sounds like a sure-fire way to have his offer eventually rescinded.
