DB vs EVR (London)
Hi monkeys,
I'm lucky enough to hold two lateral offers, one from DB and one from EVR.
Which would you recommend, bearing in mind hours/comp/exits in London?
Thx!

would take EVR
What's your reasoning
Comp will be better at Evercore. Exits will be the same if not marginally better at evercore (although team dependent and depends what you want to do). Culture depends on the team.
Wasn’t there literally a whole thread that shows DB has the best exits in all of London
Thanks!
EVR. Better in most sectors, better pay, better exits.
Thank you!
At an MF in London. There are 3-4 ex DB, no one from evercore
I'm sure there's been more exits from DB than EVR in London?
evr has had several (10+) MF/UMM exits past few years. so on a per analyst basis definitely higher. evr analyst class 25+ whilst DB 50+.
Think someone mentioned on this thread: https://www.wallstreetoasis.com/comment/3523531
Less politics, less focus on diversity (just look at the # of women and poc), smaller teams, better pay, and in this case (vs DB) likely the same if not better exits (recent exits/offers include CVC, Silverlake, and Advent, to name a few). I have no affiliation with either firm, just my 2 cents on big banks vs advisory firms.
Yeah more yt males means better performance and better bank. You’re only what 21? And your world view is already f’d up. So much for your education!
Which team?
EVR - no doubt. There are way too many MDs at DB vs actual deal flow. Your exit will be heavily dependable on your execution experience and DB remains still like a gamble with quite confused management - have heard that on some IBD calls, DB in its wrong understanding of one shop model goes as wide as pitching venture debt financing alongside venture equity raise alongside (hold for it) corporate banking… and it is not corp bank for RCF but the purest corp for everyday transactions
Depends on where eventually you wanna go.
If you wanna go PE/Megafund, DB is better. The thing with Evercore is that the probs people know about DB is way higher than Evercore.
If you wanna just do banking all your life to MD let’s say, Evercore is better. Because comps higher, they are growing rapidly in London ( I would leverage that), and if you are still A&A level, better direct exposure.
EVR is really well recognised in London and there is no confusion that it is better than DB. Even in London / Europe, people know that DB lost its prestige and ability to execute quite a while ago
That’s a bit overly confident. I’d disagree quite strongly based on my experience. Maybe it’s sector dependent?
evercore filled with worse and worse talent every year
