Baird is the only relevant or true IB shop. They house their industrials and tech/services group in mke, with many ECM bankers also sitting there.
Others that come to mind are CIBC Clearly Gull, Promontory Point, and Grace Matthews (chemical specialty bank). I’m sure the last 3 are closer to a 9-5 making ~100k TC but correct me if I’m wrong.
You are not making 100k TC in Milwaukee at those last shops you mentioned. Not even the top PE shop in mke pays 100k TC in the analyst level (aka NWM PC).
How much is it then?
9-5 at Grace Matthews? Highly doubt that....
Cleary Gull pays street, friend is an analyst.
