Not nearly as good as consumer groups like GS JPM and Bofa
I mean compared to other groups in the firm
c&r fell off compared to before where it was regarded pretty highly. It's a mid group at barc, prob worse than sponsors/pui/tech/natres/hc/ind but its better than media and doesnt pigeonhole you like fig or regal or any of the financing groups obviously. There are better places to be but also worse
Heard decent. Did you get R2?
Del
Was this for the FT role they just posted last month?
bump
stay tf away from this group, I have heard nightmare stories about this group specifically and especially the staffer. Complete doormat loser who grinds everyone till 4am on stupid shit
