BAML vs UBS vs HL
BAML vs UBS vs HL, which offer for SA would you take right now?
BofA and UBS are BB, but both are intensely struggling. On the other hand HL is a solid MM firm doing well, but the name is pretty much unknown outside the finance community.
As someone working in the A&D industry, I would take a job with HL's A&D group with a quickness.
Any idea what groups? There are a couple of very strong groups at BAML (i.e. LevFin, Real Estate, M&A is pretty good), but HL is obviously a really good MM and you would be guaranteed solid M&A access. UBS I do not know as much about so can't provide much insight there.
Your real choices are: BAML BAML, BAML
UBS maybe if you can get guaranteed placement into a product group
Houlihan isn't even in the conversation
This is just ignorant especially because the question is fairly open ended.
HL is a great firm.
What group in HL? HL does have restructuring, so there's that, if you're interested.
I'd honestly probably take BAML, but that's just me.
Assuming these are NY positions, no
Houlihan's a pretty kickass MM firm but it's definitely not of the same caliber as BAML
I am biased because HL has a great Aerospace & Defense group, which is the industry I work in.
Exactly
I said that earlier though
All three are solid. It depends on the industry you are interested in and where you want to work long term. I know people in A&D at both UBS and BAML; I would of worked for either group. At the end of the day this is for an SA position; UBS and BAML both probably give your resume more prestige than HL. Not saying that to degrade HL, I think it's a great firm...
If the firm isn't stable that gives you an out for not receiving a FT over at the end of the summer...You leave with experience, a BB name on your resume and a story for why you didn't convert to FT. So, I would pick either UBS or BAML.
