Lateral Offer HELP: Help Me Decide Where to go
Monkeys,
I have received lateral offers / currently in the recruiting pipeline for the below firms. Assuming I convert the remaining two, would appreciate any insight into how you would rank them if my priorities are exit opps and deal flow. I am pretty industry/geography agnostic and don't plan to stay in banking long-term. Really looking to pick a group that will maximize my exit opps by giving me the best transactional experience I can get. Any help/color is appreciated. Thank you.
Have verbal offers:
- UBS TMT (NY/SF)
- JPM Tech (SF)
- GS Cross Markets (NY)
Still in the recruiting process (hard to say prob of success, anywhere from 30-50%):
- MS Tech (Menlo Park)
- MS Industrials / Sponsors (SF)
- CS Industrials (NY)
JPM tech. MS tech if you end up landing it though.
MS Tech if you get it for sure, otherwise JPM Tech is very good. Don't know too much about UBS TMT. Would immediately cut GS Cross Markets unless you abruptly decide you absolutely NEED to be in NY, but otherwise axe em. This group is fine but it absolutely =/= normal GS groups.
What are your thoughts on MS Industrials?
Honestly don't know enough and don't want to guess and give you bad info. Btw, congrats on these offers. This is a great problem to have!
MS SF is industrial tech and sponsors. MP is best if you get it but would probs take MS SF over JPM SF. Would cross off GS group
JPM has a stronger tech presence although their sf M&A group handles the tech execution work and as I understand it has the better exit opps. UBS TMT has been doing well also and one of their better groups. Can’t go wrong with either.
I would echo the others and agree MS would be the no brainer.
congrats on the offers
those are some crazy good results
how much did u rely on networking?
Also curious what your background is (don’t go into specifics, something like 6 months MM IB, etc is great)
Did you have to network for JPM SF or just applied?
With the three offers, go with JPM. UBS TMT (especially SF Tech) has been losing a lot of bodies. Dont get me wrong - the group is very strong compared to rest of UBS and primarily does sponsor sell-sides, but I think also because of that, analysts are able to leverage good transaction exposure and jump to more prestigious tech groups.
How did you go about getting these offers?
any of the potential new offers > JP Tech > other offers you already have
Thank you - any insight into why MS SF will be better than JPM tech. Would appreciate any insight you have into deal flow, exit opps, lifestyle, etc.
