Networked with the firm before taking a different offer in NY. Can confirm that their industrials group there is pretty impressive, albeit sweaty. A quick LinkedIn search reveals they have very strong exits, especially if you're looking to stay in the midwest - they frequently send analysts to GTCR/MDP caliber PE shops. I believe they also possess the platform to move analysts to other cities afterwards if that's what you want. Seemed to be a good group of majority midwest undergrads (ND, Northwestern, etc.). Beautiful office in the city as well.

In comparison to other banks, I got the sense that it's one of the better bulge options in the city, although I know Citi still has a pretty big presence and that a global head of M&A sits in that office. Not as familiar with other BB's. In terms of MM, Blair/Baird lead the pack.

Hope this helps.
