BAML then CS
How would Citi/Barclays/MS follow?
Barclays, BAML, CS, MS, even DB is "decent"
Is that in any particular order? Do you have insight on culture at any?
MS is brutal, Barclays is great, don't know much beyond that
CS and Barclays are both strong but can't comment on culture. UBS FLSF is good and has really strong PE placements but culture is horrendous. BAML seems to be good as well.
When I went through recruiting last year CS FSG seemed to be all the hype. Not sure how it is nowadays.
Barclays being listed on this thread as one of the top sponsors groups though? Never heard that sentiment before.
Don't Lev Fin at Barc run the model vs Sponsors? Or am I mistaken?
I believe sponsors runs with the model at Barclays, CS, DB, UBS and likely a few more
