It is totally horrible. Worst bank in the history of the world. All their models automatically #REF every 30 minutes, their HR chicks are ugly, their analysts usually exit to commercial banking and seamless web purposely ignores their orders because even the delivery guys are too ashamed to be seen in the vicinity of Madison square park in case they are mistaken for a forlorn Credit Suisse DCM VP out for a stroll.

Speaking of HR chicks, which bank has the cutest ones? I'm juggling between a few offers right now, and I think the cuteness level of the HR chicks will make/break my decision. Right now, I'm trying to decide between Wachovia and Bear... Wachovia had three skinny and pretty girls during my superday (+3 points each), and only one fat one (-5 points). Bear had two HR chicks, and they were slightly-above average looking (+2 points each).

As you can see, each of these banks ends up with 4 points, so I don't really know how to decide...

Also, can someone please give me the breakdown and rank the following firms in terms of cuteness of HR chicks?

GS MS LEH JPM ML Citi LAZ BofA

Thanks!

 

CS is a good bank, and at this level in banking it's not whether the bank is better than an other, it's whether you like the team you will be working with or not. And I personally never was a big fan of HR girls in general, except on the phone, some of them had some realllllly hot voices.

my take on CS is that it's overall a very good bank. Perhaps more so than other banks, the disparity between groups can be quite large. The really awesome ones are technology, energy, sponsors, leveraged finance and M & A. The awful ones are FIG, healthcare and retail/consumer.

 

actually, the London office is in big trouble these days. Most people don't like it. I don't think I have ever talked to a single person who has been pinched or moved who has liked their new surroundings. Obviously a big swinger, but I'm sure a better choice could be made.
