dreamer1992I am tired of mulling over this question repeatedly, seriously want to get back to my life so would appreciate your help.
SA offers at DB and CS NYC. Liked people at both places. DB seems more inclined (no formal commitment though) to place me into my top choice groups (FSG/Lev Fin or M&A). No such inclination shown by CS, so will have to go through the group selection process where 80% interns apply for the groups that I want.
Which offer would you go with in this situation? Is CS that much better off than DB that I should go with it even though DB has 50% better chance of giving me my top choice group?
Only want the advice of current SAs, analysts or people in the industry. No overeager freshman or sophomores please. Not today. Thank you!
Both banks are about even overall but I'm pretty sure that entire acquisition platform - sponsors, lev fin, m&a - is better at CS. Unless you know for certain that you will get your top group at DB, I would go with CS.

interesting-thanks. hypothetically speaking- if you were say 70-80% sure that you get your top group at DB, would you still be willing to risk going with CS even though the group is a blind spot?
Depends how well you think you'll do at a CS sell-day. I'd probably go DB for the (semi?) sure thing. That being said, CS is probably a better platform on a group by group basis.
Choose based on where you liked the ppl you met most. Just keep in mind CS is a shark tank run by a bunch of young people that are really driven to make a lot of fkin money. I would choose CS as it is a better firm on more lead mandates overall.

bump.
CS is generally regarded as the better bank overall and I would take it over DB despite the uncertainty of group placement.
Never trust anything someone in finance says to you that they won't put in writing. Go where you like the people.
