Great question. NY location.
a) M&A, FSG, Tech in that order... (Tech is separate from M&C, which is stronger exits) b) Can 100% confirm that the vast majority of analysts in JPM M&A all exited to very reputable shops (TPG, Carlyle, but not all MFs), several analysts said that FSG does not work as much as other groups but places better b/c of relationships, tech shop in NYC is legacy payments-type companies with more ECM product experience with less of an M&A focus C) M&A Pros: Strong exits, modelling experience (M&A analysts teach the new analyst class how to do merger models, ac/dil,etc.), very strong deal flow on high profile transactions, M&A Cons: Work a lot and consistently in the 90 hour range with a few 100s thrown in there, some senior folks are very inefficient with resources, can get put on advisory/defense, definitely have some monkey work for internal projects
FSG pros: relatively laid back culture, strong exits, marginally better Work life balance, work with all product and coverage groups FSG cons: seen as not as technical compared to most groups
Tech pros: relatively laid back culture, SF tech and NYC tech vastly different (SF more sweaty), NYC team strong return offer rate Tech cons: more ECM exposure than M&A, not a strong group for JPM compared to M&A / HC, less technical
