offers

Curious if anyone has heard anything regarding WB's full time offers to summers?

I've been browsing through different threads regarding the state of Merrill offers, for both associates & analysts. Different people have been saying different things, across different threads. So I thought that I'd make this thread, dedicated to communicating any news regarding the state of any Merrill offers on the line.

Any new thoughts? Most recently, I think IBnutz has mentioned he's heard from an MD in Healthcare that all offers are likely being pulled as soon as the deal closes. Any insight?

I accepted an offer back in September from a MM bank. I am beginning to worry that it might be renegged in the coming months if the markets/economy keep on their current path. Are others worried about their offers being pulled?

Earlier this year I received an offer from a company. Although I wasn't much interested in the position, I signed with them so I could solidify a job after graduation just in case I can't get anything else.

Just recently, I received an offer from a company that I am genuinely interested in and signed with them as well. Because I am more interested in this company I plan to renege on my first. The question is when.

The second company notified me that they will be running a background check on me at the beginning of next year. I am kinda worried (although I probably shouldn't be) because one of my past employers that I had on my resume doesn't like me and there is a chance that she might give me a negative remark during the reference check.

Curious to know if anyone has heard of offers being rescinded for Citi's IBD. I've got a buddy who has an offer to start in June/July; he hasn't received any bad news yet. What have you guys heard?

So say that I get an offer from company A and accept. Later on I interview with company B and they give me an offer. I like company B better than company A, but do not renege on company A until the last minute because of fears that company B may go down amidst this shitty market.

Is this a good idea or should I renege ASAP?

First off, I want to say thanks to all the posters on this board. WSO has been an invaluable resource in preparation for interview season, and I don't think I could've advanced this far in the recruitment process without all the insights and information on this board.

I recently had a couple Super Days and am fortunate to have received two offers in the process.
