Centerview vs. BAML vs. DB vs. BMO SA
I'm debating offers at Centerview, BAML, DB, and BMO for SA. All of the offers are for IBD. Does anyone have any advice?

CV all the way brotha
The real debate here is between CV and BAML. The other two banks' IBD are at a different level compared with the former two.
Centerview has the huge pay advantage over baml, so if you're fine working in IBD for 3 years, I would say take CV for sure.
If you want a huge class for networking and optionality to quit after one year for HF/other opps without having your bonus clawed back (as you will at CV), take BAML.
You can't go wrong either way.
Congrats on the offers! I'd rank them:
The ranking between baml and DB is somewhat dependent on group.
CV or BAML If you think you might want a career in IBD, CV all the way. For PE/HF exit ops, baml. CV pays insanely well, but does not support analysts leaving for the buyside at all
lol so much advice from prospective monkeys, non-targets, etc. aint worth shi..
I still agree with the advice given above.
me too (well maybe not about DB discrimination), but it is not like those comments would have any weight if i were facing the same situation as op
CV no doubt
I feel like CV SA will get you more looks from GS/MS/JPM for FT than BAML but who knows, I'm a prospective monkey.
CV = $$$
why would you even compare cv to BMO?
centerview if u want banking / finance long-term. If you're even thinking about changing industry in the future, BAML
Wouldn't Centerview still give you great exit ops? How important is it that the people in your firm support your choice to move to the buyside? I can see how a place like PWP that blocks headhunters could make buyside recruiting tough, but I would think that going to Centerview would still leave that option open.
Centerview no matter what..not sure how it got the reputation of having 'bad exits.' Just because it is a 3 year program and the senior people are encouraging of career bankers doesn't mean you can't go to the buyside.
