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?

what was the pay for GS Corp. Treasury? Its one of their better groups in the MO thats for sure.
OP,
I am interested in Treasury. Is this for Full time or Summer? What was your stats/Resume etc?
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.
I'd add one more question to my original post - what looks better on a resume for Grad applications? Having GS in NYC is definitely a good name on a resume during applications. Do MBA programs place a lot of emphasis on location?
