How’s MS CRG (Consumer)?
Incoming intern - would appreciate any info about MS CRG’s culture / deal flow / work load. Seems like they did KDP/Peet and a few other $Bn M&As this quarter. Thanks!

Like many bulge brackets, strong deal flow but horrible culture. Have already had multiple 1Y analysts leave since starting 5 months ago.
Ty! How would you comment on the hours - is it an average or busier group at MS on the analyst level? I heard more than half of the 1st yr class left which is unusual…
More than half????
I believe they are currently trying to recruit half of their first year class but running a really weird process. Probably scared they will lose their whole analyst class in less than 6 months
Do you think ppl left because of horrible hours / culture? Thought CRG has similar hours comparing to other coverage groups at MS
What is the process they're running? I haven't seen any postings, internal/external, for a role on the team and am interested in one.
It’s over now
no way it went public probably all ran through headhunters
mostly through referrals, a lot of candidates and several rounds of interviews
what headhunters cover bb IB roles?
People didn’t leave because the culture or hours were materially worse than the rest of IBD — the turnover was, frankly, due to a mismatch in long-term interests. None of the analysts who left stayed in finance, which says more about personal career preferences than the group itself. You could argue that the CRG group placement that year attracted people who were more “consumer-focused” than committed to IB
In terms of the actual work, the group has healthy deal flow, is very strong in several consumer sub-verticals, and has a solid mentorship and collaborative culture. Also heard heard that the lateral analysts they’ve brought in are strong
Def not the sweatiest group at MS
