Piper, Mizuho only does debt deals
Networked heavily with Piper SF, great group. Take that offer
Take Mizuho if you want to be a corporate banker with a glorified investment banking title
Is Mizuho SF not a good group?
Correct
Piper consumer in SF is indeed pretty solid. Worked with them on several transactions and they were quite resourceful - have seen analysts there jumping into solid funds in the region as well.
Is the Mizuho offer from a super day this week/last week? How long did it take for you to hear back afterward?
Agree with Piper. I had an offer from Piper SF Biopharma and they were some of the nicest people at all of the banks I interviewed at.
