All of them are decent tier 2 places, pretty sure they all give you the opportunity to lateral to Deutsche/ Credit Suisse at some point in your career if you network hard.
Bruh no you don’t
offers at 3 or 4 (find out today) out of 6. actually pls want advice
Diversity is paradise lmfao
Definitely spring weeks
I would personally take a more reputable firm like FT Partners over the ones you listed. They have amazing comp
Second this. Heard they have great WLB as well.
Did you know they also pay 140k base!
obligatory “$140k base btw”
KeyBanc really is the best of them all
If you truly want some advice you need to confirm what offers you really have and for what groups. There is a lot of variability in your title.

People are getting more creative at trying to get new ranking threads
It's difficult to rank investment banks definitively as each bank has its strengths and weaknesses, and different banks may perform better in certain areas than others. However, based on factors such as global reputation, deal volume, and prestige, here is a rough ranking of the investment banks you listed:
Again, this ranking is not definitive and may vary based on specific circumstances or criteria. It's important to note that each of these banks is a reputable and successful firm in the investment banking industry.
JPM > MS??
JPM > GS and MS and everything else
Just say you got jpm and BofA
JPM right below Goldman ☝️
Depends on what u r looking for and if u wanna stay short or long term
GS/JPM/MS are the most prestigious but culture, WLB, and comp vary a lot
EVR is decent wouldn’t give much thought to the other 2
Where do u wanna go long term?
Yeah good call, wouldn't consider CVP ever. They're actually so shitty, clearly
why?
PE?
GS reputation took a hit and their comp isn’t as good as JPM starting
Id take these offers and get in contact with someone at Wells Fargo ASAP. That's where you really want to be
In what groups?
It's not just about brand - it's about the specific group.
Please think through your posts before just posting them up. People will be more responsive.
If I were you I wouldn't recruit for Goldman. Honestly after how the cuts were done the culture has been brought to light to much of the street. Sadly there will always be some idiots who just see the logo and don't realize there are better options on the street.
offers are all generalist
which do you see as better
Tier 1: BofA
Tier 2: GS, MS
Tier 3: JPM
Tier 4: CVP, EVR
