they got a non compete with MS in large cap M&A cuz they own something like 20ish percent of MS

 

Analyst 1 in IB - Gen

I'm not seeing anything regarding an M&A group online. I checked league tables it doesnt look like MUFG even does sell side advisory aside from Project Finance. Do you mean they do acquisition financing? That's very different from an "M&A group"...

I can't comment on their deal flow, but I had interview for their FSG and Healthcare group. Deal flow and brand aside. The MD that I spoke with are super weird. Keep in mind, 1 come from goldman and 1 from citi. Very strong credential in past work experience and school. However, they both give me the vibe that they are outcast of GS / Citi. The interview was super unstructured and unorganized. I'm a 1st year analyst at a BB and they interviewed me both for a senior associate / junior VP role, which I was super unqualified. I felt like they were trying to figure out why I'm interviewing for the role, however the job description states 1-5 years experience and didn't specify the title of the job. I understand if it was the HR that reviewed my resume, but it was the head of Healthcare that reached out / the MD at FSG that review my resume. Question focus a lot of how I will add value in terms of bringing in deals multiple times after I clearly state that I was an analyst. No where on my resume did I overstate my experience.

I interviewed for SA in the IBD devision in LA. I was told by bankers there you go there to retire/have a family life while still being a banker. Overall very sleepy vibe and took a different offer. Seemed super slow and packed with red tape

Pretty much this. The super slow decision making and red tape seems accurate, since despite having a largely US local workforce, they are still a Japanese bank at the end of the day and all key decisions always have to go through Tokyo first.
