Bank of America vs Citi vs Credit Suisse in London

Hi monkeys,

how whould you rank these in London? They are obviously behind GS/MS/(JPM), but what would be your prestige ranking? Which if best for MF/UMM PE and for exit ops en general? Or am I dreaming? Best groups in each bank in London?

There has been some threads on this already, but wanted to get a November 2021 update. 

Happy to see monkey shit thrown at me. Ciao.

I would go with BofA.

Both Citi and BofA are clear of Credit Suisse imo.

BofA is also considered slightly better than Citi for both deal flow and exits.

However, the culture / pay etc.. are much much better at BofA. I am not talking about people here as I have never worked at either in London, but worked at one of these two in EU. I am rather talking about other things such as meal reimbursement during wfh, 2 year vs 3 year analyst program etc..
