Analyst offers - FT Partners vs DC Advisory (TMT) vs Raymond James (TMT)

Hi, I'm set to graduate in the spring and am reviewing offers from three TMT boutiques, any context/ranking on the three would be appreciated! Mainly considering reputation in the sector and exit ops

FT is well regarded in the FinTech space. They have really good deal flow, but junior bankers get worked a ton as a result.

I haven't heard of DC Advisory.

Raymond James is a decent platform; I'd probably put them in a tier below Houlihan/Jefferies in the mid-market banks. Not sure specifically how they do for TMT.

Are these offers all for the Bay Area? Where you want to live, the part of TMT you want to focus on (if any; lots of good reasons to stay more generalist at the point in your career), and how you got along with the teams are good things to take into account here.
