Add Harris Williams, Sagent Advisors, and Lazard to this list
Where's Qatalyst?
hahaha Canadian banks must have paid out the ass to have their names on this list
stopped reading at "non-BB"
Wells Fargo?
Yeah... Lazard should be on there...
also
inb4 shitstormI think the idea was that Rothschild/Lazard/Blackstone were well known enough already, and these 16 are just less "famous" ones
Lawl piper Jefferies these guys just hand spread comps for pitches all days to your mom and pop shops
one guy actually got a great exit op. Manager in waiting at Mickey Ds!!
where's BlackRock PAG?
BlackRock's not an investment bank you retard.
"Sandler O'Neill + Partners: "best FIG group on the Street" (#3 Hours, #10 Overall Satisfaction)"
Yeah everyone is turning down GS FIG for sandler o neill.
Where's Allen & Co? Savvian?
Never rank..
Oppenheimer is really neat.
No Lazard, but they have Piper Jaffray. This list is complete shit.
nah man i think BlackRock PAG is so prestigious its on every list. voted back office star of 1999 and 2008. one of the best places for garbagemen to start their careers. def a jewel among the rough of back office.
PS: back office U MAD?
How hard is it to lateral between these firms?
second what boutiquebank4life said.
TD Securities? lmfao
Would anyone with a Vault GOLD membership mind pming me the salary reports for these companies? I looked at the rankings and some of it is just really hard to believe. I already checked with my schools career center and they only had access to the basic.
why is UBS not on there?
..j/k..

Why you troll so much though? :(
If you're just gonna troll on every account you make, what's the point of making new one's constantly. Stop ruining threads.
You got to love the comment on RBC, "the Goldman of Canada."
Playing for the Cavs was so Piper Jaffray-ish of me
XD
GS > MS > JPM > Citi = CS > DB > Barcap > BAML > UBS
Having access to senior staff from day one at a boutique vs being a number in a huge machine >
Sorry about your life dude, don't worry, it gets better if you work hard enoughSorry, I think you've mistaken me with someone who works at BAML or UBS.
