Raine vs. BB

Raine has a pretty sweet advisory/investment model and strong name in the media space, but how would you compare the group to other BB offers (particularly within the M&A groups at a Citi/CS/DB)?

Thanks!

Thanks for the info. Given their reputation, does senior management discourage leaving to PE? If that's so, I'm leaning towards BB given that I'd like to jump to PE or growth equity.

I don't know if they discourage it, but they tend to hire people who want to be there for the long haul. If you are thinking of exits going in, you might want the BB. The recruiting pipeline in baked into the BB model, and some MDs will even help with recruiting.
