DB
These are two completely different roles, yea? why would it be a decision at all.. IBD won't be like financing whether it's at GS or DB
financing at GS is under IBD or?
Can confirm it is under IBD. Though classic IB coverage groups tend to be a lot larger than the financing groups.
did the GS name make you jizz your pants?
It's a decision because these are 2 offers I have...? Both for summer analyst roles. Any opinions are appreciated
And just as a fyi, "financing" at GS is just capital markets/product group, it sits within IBD
Depends on what you want to do. If you're into capital markets, then go GS all the way. One of the (if not the) top ECM groups on the street. Solid in all other verticals. But if you want to exit to traditional buyside roles then you need to go DB. Probably the only group in GS Financing that places into well respected funds is LevFin but DB LevFin or any of their strong coverage groups (essp. Sponors/Industrials) will outplace them.
Sorry for hijacking the thread but when did you get the DB offer? How long did it take after your superday?
DB calls day of superday
