Hands down SVBL’s Boston office. One of the new Tech MDs put it as “the most beautiful office you’ll ever see in investment banking.” They occupy the top two floors of Boston’s nicest/most iconic office building, with stunning views of the city. The office has marble everywhere and all the conference rooms have curved glass. The kitchen there even has beer on tap 24/7 with local IPAs from Boston. Better yet, they have a huge private rooftop deck where they have happy hours pretty often and host big events with clients. There aren’t any pictures of the office online but if you ever have the chance to visit it you’re in for having your jaw drop

 

When I ran through recruiting back in 2016, the nicest offices in NYC were Goldman, BAML and CS

I'm sure things have changed in the past 6 years. 

 

Can confirm, bar, ping pong, pool table, multiple terraces, good dining hall and nice views from all floors.

 

Skaddens office at Hudson yards is sick - great views of Manhattan, modern and spacious everything, brand new building

All jokes aside about Citi, 388 Greenwich st is a good office, especially the trading floors - brand new everything, great view and location in tribeca, in building gym as well

Ducera - looks like a museum, super modern and sleek, very classy

KPS - my personal favorite, so nice, sleek, modern, and ultra stylish

 

Although the Wells Fargo hq in Frisco is in a fairly ugly building, the top executive floor is like pure sixties mahogany madness with brutalist roof garden touches. Extremely good looking.
