JPM M&A (SF) vs MS Public Finance (NYC) vs UBS Generalist (NYC) vs BAML ECM (NYC)
Between these four, which one would you choose and why? I currently have the JPM M&A offer but am still in the process with the other ones. Which one is the best one to join? I can't decide because I am group agnostic right now but leaning towards JPM M&A.
It depends on what you are looking for. All BBs with JPM and MS being "top tier" BAML being "mid-tier" and UBS being "bottom tier". But fuck all that. Do you want to be in SF? take JPM. Do you want to be in ECM? take BofA. Ultimately only you know your career goals and where you fit the best.
Yeah, that's a good point. I was thinking about M&A in NYC but that's not an option right now. Is it better to go with JPM in SF right now and try to switch to NYC for full time or take one of the ones in NYC and try to get into M&A that way? In other words, is it easier to switch locations within the same group or teams within the same location?
If you want M&A take JPM. MS has a great M&A group but there's no guarantee / little chance of getting placed there IMO. Always easier to lateral to NYC when you already have M&A experience under your belt at a top firm. ECM can be a challenge to get into M&A even at a great bank like BofA. That being said, if you absolutely would despise being in LA I would take MS. At the end of the day, you are in a great place and have a lot to be proud of. Do what feels best for you and I am sure you will have continued success
take jpm. not close.

From my superday with them, they seemed nice and friendly. As for work, they said 80% of their M&A deals are Tech which makes sense because it's SF. Pay is the same as NYC, atleast for their SA positions because I got the same offer as an intern going to go work at NYC.
What other industrys besides tech?
