London EBs vs BBs

Hi everyone,

I m just curious why some of you decided to choose EBs over BBs or vice versa. Do you think you learn more at BBs because of exposure to not only M&A but also ECM/DCM. And do EBs oftentimes just work on a deal as one of the advisors and not the lead advisor? If anyone also had more insights into MS, JPM and PWP in London (regarding best teams, experience, culture etc.), that would be great. Don’t really care too much about exit opps.

Thanks!
