CS SA 2019 IBD Offer Decision

I recently got a generalist offer from CS IBCM for 2019 SA program. My deadline is looking like it's before other banks I'm interested in are having their superdays, but I'm hopeful that I can land interviews at other banks. Any thoughts on the outlook of CS IB for the next few years? How favorably does it compare to BAML, MS, and Barclays? In terms of groups, I'm interested in Healthcare, TMT/Tech, and M&A, but open to other groups depending on culture.

Hi, is your offer for NY or another office? I applied to Chicago and have not heard back yet apart from having "Application Under Review"

I haven't had interviews at all of them, but I understand that the recruiting processes for those firms are upcoming and I have been in touch with my contacts to get considered prior to making a decision on CS. Networked my way into the CS process and site visits helped a ton. Nothing's guaranteed but I'm just trying to figure out if I want to pursue those opportunities
