Curious to hear how the different groups at Credit Suisse NY have been doing recently. I know Sponsors, M&A, and Industrials are historically the stronger groups for deal flow, but it would be great to get some input from people currently there or on the street. Based on recent talks it seems like C&R has been strong. End goal is to go to PE after two years. Thanks.

Bump.
FIG, tech are pretty good.
Heard that FIG really isn’t that good. Top groups are FSG, LevFin, and M&A, Tech.
Strongest groups as CS are Sponsors, Industrials, and M&A. FIG isnt very strong and hasn't been in the past couple years. C&R has had very steady deal flow with some huge deals in the mix but had a down year this year, as did most of the bank. Tech is a solid group but more-so out in San Fran than NY.
I was curious if C&R had been able to maintain their momentum this year, so thanks for the info.
In terms of deal flow, placement, and rankings across the street: 1) FSG and LFO&R (Slight edge to FSG for lifestyle) 2) TMT 3) M&A
Power and industrials have been doing pretty well lately. M&A struggled a bit last year
Any indication on hours and culture within FSG and or LevFin?
Pretty brutal from what I've heard. Lot of turnover at the junior level. That can be seen as good or bad depending on your perspective and goals.
Can anyone list some specific exits that analysts have had in recent years? Especially interested to see how many MFs and UMM are represented. Which group they were in would also be nice. I know product groups like M&A and Lev Fin definitely place better, but I am also strongly passionate about some industries like C&R and am trying to figure out if the "disadvantage" in recruiting is that much of a hindrance from a group like that.
