Are MM/Botique Equity/Debt Rasing Firms Good Experience?

I’m talking about your typical MM/boutique that specializes in public/private placement, follow-ons, atm offerings and note issuance in the $50 -500mm range.

Is this valid Ib experience or do you really want to be doing mergers and LBOs?

Also would this role entail food exits opps to an Equity Capital Markets group?
