Anyone have substantiated information on banks letting recently hired analysts go while in training.... either do to credit-crunch now or just for any other reason?

Does Coverage offer bad exit opps?

It seems that all the trolls here always claim that those analysts in product groups get better exit opps/placement than coverage analysts.

From those with experience and first-hand knowledge, is that true?

Is there anything wrong with an analyst in an industry group who gains exposure to all types of products and transactions?

(im interested in all possible exit opps: pe hf cd)
