Goldman Corporate Treasury or JPM Private Bank for SA?

Received offers from both - and have already made my decision but would like some input. Goldman was in NY and JPM is in a regional office out west. Thoughts for exit opps, prestige, and salary growth into the future?

 

If you want to be front office and the JPM PB job is front office, I'd say go with JPM. I'd wait for someone else's opinion on that, but if I'm understanding the positions correctly, it's a lot harder to move from treasury to FO than midwest FO -> NYC FO.

That's assuming you don't like/want to do treasury.

The position was for a SA role. Pay at GS was $65k with a small housing stipend. 3.61 GPA from semi-target but good networking within Finance at GS. Freshmen and Sophomore experiences in S&T at boutique firms out west. Treasury superday was tough but I can give plenty of advice on interview questions.

I did end up accepting JPM over GS, as I agree that it's probably easier to go from midwest FO to NYC FO. Treasury was slightly enticing mostly due to GS and NYC but definitely more analytical than I'd prefer.
