Career Resources
MS, GS and BAML are on basically every IPO. Mega M&A deals are all Centerview. Piper has a strong fitness banking practice (like orangetheory, etc) and consumer products. North Point Advisors is a pretty good M&A boutique (seen BBs lose to them).
^^^^ Barclays and EVR are also great.
Consumer and Retail....you should be looking into the best distressed group then...
Mega/Large Cap: Centerview New Age Food & Beverage: HL & Piper Jaffray New Age Consumer: Not sure that anyone dominates all verticals, though Piper strong here as well BBs with a generally strong presence: GS, MS, BAML MMs with a generally strong presence: Jefferies, HW, Blair, Baird, Lincoln (LMM)
Most of the shops will be strong in one or two verticals (F&B, restaurants, retail, consumer products, household products, etc.) and very few are strong across the board
Centerview for best overall large deals, HL & Piper Jaffray for Growth Oriented deals
