My friend has an offer in Capital Markets with a top bank in NYC (think GS/MS) and also one with a top tech boutique bank out in the west coast that does small IPOs (just under 100m).

markets are cooling. take the top BB offer.
if the market hits the floor the big guys' mds will pitch against the boutique's mds.
if you ran a firm and you're ipo'ing. do you want GS or Thomas Weisel left lead. even though it costs more, you want GS.
