MS Menlo or Evercore NY - 1st yr Associate

Would you take the offer from MS Menlo or Evercore NY?

My concerns are deal types, work-life balance, lifestyle, culture, pay, benefits, and exit options. Appreciate any thoughts.

MS Menlo.. both are very comparable… WLB is equally shitty

But here’s the catch …. Will choose NYC over Menlo any day

But as long as it’s temporary, MS Menlo is legendary and IMO has better sell side deal flow than EVCR NYC
