DB/UBS SA FT Choices
Question: On top of the rest of the BBs and EBs, what are some other banks you'd consider taking offers from over DB/UBS?
For context, I'm currently a junior SA working with one of DB/UBS and considering moving to another bank for FT. I attend a target school with a 3.8+ GPA. This may sound like a cliche, but as of right now my goal is IB (NYC) --> PE --> business school.
Apologies if this sounds like another dick measuring contest, but, given the pandemic and the potentially decreasing headcount many people have been talking about, I've been quite stressed and do feel that I have to take prestige & exit opps into consideration to lay the "best" foundation for my career. Pay would be placed some weight on as well, although certainly secondary to the aforementioned metrics.
Thanks for any input!
Like the person above, if you're in UBS GIG or DB LevFin, nowhere else.
If not, Jefferies is pretty much the only place that I'd even consider. DB/UBS are the worst BBs, but they're still BBs and because of that they're going to be better than most if not all other (non-BB/EB) banks. Just because they're the worst BBs doesn't mean they're bad banks, doesn't even mean they're average.
