Baird vs BofA (Both Chicago)
Fortunate to receive offers from 2 respectable firms in Chicago. I was wondering if anyone has any advice/insight to make my decision easier. On the one hand, BofA carries prestige and brand name but I have also heard that Baird and Blair basically run Chicago. I am not sure if I will recruit for the buyside but definitely want to keep that option open.
For BofA I have an offer from the EGRC group and Baird is generalist internship but hopefully get placed into tech Services for FT.
Thanks in advance.
BAML EGRC tends to be hit with layoffs very hard during downturns. If you feel confident that you'd be a superstar who wouldn't get cut, it's the better option.
You'll be happier at Baird, but you'll work significantly more hours. That may not make much sense - but it may be more enjoyable to work 100 hours surrounded by people you like, than 75 hours by people who make you watch your back. Exits will not be the same quality, but they will be pretty good still. I'd wager your TC would actually be more, too.
If you want GE\ VC would go with EGRC. EGRC is performing much better on a total deal flow basis than most groups at bofa and in general bofa does not have the mass layoffs we have seen at other banks.
