Nomura SF vs SocGen NY vs DB NY
Curious on the ranking of these firms and which would provide the best chance of re-recruiting for BB/EB FT. Sitting on a good offer for soph summer but messed up SA '25. Would love insight into these firms?

DB is the best offer here by far... was historically considered a BB(it no longer really has enough deal flow to be considered as such being lower on last year's league tables than top MMs like Jefferies and RBC, but historical reputation still exits) and has some groups(LevFin/REGL/Sponsors) with good exits and some deal flow, unlike the other firms.
How would you rank the others?
Significantly worse than DB, I think DB is the worst historical BB, but it's still equal to or above the MM names like the ones mentioned here. Nomura and SocGen are both interchangeable and think you'd want to lateral once you start FT from either of those firms if your goal is anything better than LMM IB. I am not saying MM IB isn't possible, but that's a top-tier outcome from that kind of firm... while it's the average outcome at the good DB groups and in line with outcomes at the average DB coverage group.
Note: I don't work at any of these 3 firms or see any of them on any teams(except for DB sometimes for sponsors/Levfin stuff, so this is all based purely on perception of these firms)
So DB > Nomura SF = SocGen NY?
