Offer to choose: BAML London vs. GS HK, both are IBD SA offers
Background: Asian female. Personally I prefer European life style, but heard that career ceiling is low for Asian people in London.
How do you think of this situation? Thanks a lot.

If you like the lifestyle in London, choose London. I'm also originally from Asia and decided to stay in US bc I also prefer the lifestyle here.
baml london，you can lateral your Asia but not the other way around
BAML London - at the end of the day you’re going to be doing more complex deals in London and you will find it extremely easy to move to HK down the line if you want to. Going from HK to London is much much harder. You’ll get more ‘respect’ coming out of two years in London than HK and you prefer living in London anyways.
Idk who told you that but they're wrong lol
Yeah, that's a pretty ridiculous comment. Know several past/present Asian MDs at BofA London.
