This has been in my head for a long time, but this is one of those questions that I've been reluctant to ask in real life.
Specifically to IBD, is there really a big difference (if at all) in the quality of work between two BBs (e.g. GS vs DB) - from a client's standpoint? If so, how is it different? If not, then is it a purely reputational thing?
