definitely looking to be a player, recruiting heavily and focusing on emerging markets (read: India). MS tops (probably MS's top industry group, period), Goldman second, probably Lehman and JPM after that. DB? I don't think so.

 

Why is DB so bad? 2 VP here spend their analyst years at DB and they liked their experience.

I once met a kid who interned at JPM IB NYC after his junior year who interned at DB London after his sophomore year (don't ask me how he got it) and he HATED the DB job.

I don't think DB is the worst. Some people HATE JPM's culture. But this kid loves it (compared to his experience at DB).

 

haven't heard too many ppl complain about JPM 'cept in M&A...surprising u say that. DB is notorious for absolutely killing their analysts in every group so doesn't surprise me that this kid hated his experience.

 

I know this is an old topic but...

How is Goldman's Real Estate group relative to others? I've heard MS is tops but after that it seems up in the air.
