BAML C&R vs Healthcare

Hello fellow monkies,

I'm a regular here but I made a throwaway for anonymity. I am a sophomore from a non-target who was able to secure an offer from BAML this summer I am trying to make my decision.

C&R: Arguably one BAML's best group. the team seems relaxed but also a little too weird. I have mild interest in c&r but I am well versed in the industry

Healthcare: They seemed friendly but I heard that HC is not what it used to be at BAML. I love the hc services and biotech space.

Also looking at E&P but heard they are not a top group and have lousy deal flow.

I want to get a return offer and also be in a good "fit" group, while getting some good modeling experience because some BAML groups outsource that to M&A team

Any help is appreciated

That's interesting. I am leaning towards C&R are the hours brutal? I felt like the guys in that group were really feminine probably because of the fact that the group has a lot of women...But I am impressed by BAML's reputation in c&r

Thanks anymore responses and insights appreciated! Any stories or anecdotes that are true are welcome

 

Not to sound unclear or indecisive but my main goal is to get a return offer, learn a lot, fit in well & have a blast with my group. I have the work hard play hard mentality and I don't mind working late. I am not trying to find the group that'll let me be home before midnight every night, its banking after all
