Career Resources
Aside from traditional MMs (HL, Blair, Baird, etc.), some good names I've seen are First Analysis, Shea & Co, Aeris Partners
For mm boutique I think shea & co is very well regarded and I have friends who have worked there and really liked it. I've heard good things about Aeris Partners as well but don't know them personally. Others like vista point, vaquero, progress partners are more LMM. On the UMM spectrum guys like Union Square, FTP are good though I know people at both and they are sweaty.
for boutiques: Spurrier and Shea do some nice deals. AGC for lower end volume.
for traditional MM: HL is historically not great in software but bought GCA which should help. HW is solid for sponsor stuff. Blair and Jeff are top software MM. Baird, KeyBanc, RJ and Stifel are also solid.
