One of the best LevFin on the street together with GS and BNP Paribas.
In terms of exits, everyone from the team wants to go PE but its extremely hard from LevFin so most ends up at Credit funds or Cap Market at Sponsors.
Team is well-known for being very toxic, and encourages nepotism hires. Seen people lateralling from places like ING or other no name banks to JPM LevFin.
You will do 0 modelling, very execution heavy team. A good place to be for 1-2 years.
Thank you that’s very helpful. And when you say toxic that’s in terms of team culture I assume? Or just brutal hours
Toxic and sweaty is not the same thing. Toxic as in VPs who lateralled from a no name bank thinks they are the boss and can treat you how ever they want, i.e. with unnecessary comments and extreme passive aggressive comments
That's helpful colour - would you otherwise recommend the team, or is the toxic culture you describe really present across all layers of the team and therefore better to gun for a different team/bank?
