fidelity or blackrock of course
Most people take a BB role with the hope of moving to a Fidelity or Blackrock down the road with experience under their belt. If that's where you'd like to end up, but you get the shot to do it straight away, it's a no-brainer.
99% of them time, the buyside shop is better. The rare exception would be if the BB had a really great analyst you wanted to work under.
.
Agreed. With the buyside opp, you can easily move back to sellside. But many associates on the sellside are looking to move to buyside, so you'll be competing against them.
I would only do the BB if the analyst was II topper or is a great mentor, etc.
