EVR vs CVP
Recently got offers for both these firms for summer 2023. Don’t mind the 3 year analyst program, just concerned about CVP’s exits if I ever want to do PE/HF.

Career Resources
Can't go wrong with either. If I was in your shoes I would look at it like this:
- Comp: CVP
- Exits: EVR
- Culture: CVP
- Brand name both in and outside finance: EVR
Kinda splitting hairs so honestly, I can't say with 100% certainty which I would choose but I might lean toward EVR because personally for me exits (PE) and brand name were always the most important things. But it depends on what you value. With that said as far as your actual banking experience, and especially for the idea of being a career banker (which I personally do find attractive as well) I don't think there's a better place to be than CVP.
Ultimately it depends on what you value and if you could see yourself recruiting for buy side imo
Why do you say CVP for the culture? Have anecdotally heard EVR has stronger culture and WLB.
EVR has reached the size where it kinda depends on group (I interned there)
Just word of mouth. Could be wrong but CVP has always been praised for its culture and historically EVR used to have some more sweaty groups from my understanding
EVR
is it true that it's nearly impossible to lateral from EVR to CVP/ vice versa esp at the junior levels? i've heard a few sources mention that they have an "understood agreement" not to compete for talent
Know someone who interned at CVP and moved to EVR full time so don’t think so
Funnily enough I know of that person -- she actually did not receive full-time offer for CVP and successfully converted to EVR.
While the EVR analyst program is 3 years, you still exit after 2 years as opposed to CVP where you are expected to stay 3.
I would choose CVP.
Would choose EVR.
Worked at EVR and have best friends working at CVP. Would choose CVP
Have heard very suspect things about the culture in the CVP PA office... plus they aren't even very good in tech. If this were NY, it would be better.
Would you be able to elaborate on what you heard regarding CVP PA?
some assholes at the mid-level. 100 hr weeks as first year analyst. exits suck. not interesting deals (aka boring tech, semi's, hardware, boring SaaS companies)
Both are for NY!

Unfortunately can’t answer your question, however was wondering if you would be kind to make a separate post detailing your experience with the application process. :) Thanks!
EVR for the exits
