Any guidance would be much appreciated with SBs!
They all suck
Never heard of any of them, so as far as exit opps go they will be limited -- certainly not on par with what is normally discussed on this site. Same for lateralling ops.
can't really rank but i hope this helps at least a little.
Seaport RX - i've seen these guys occasionally on chap. 11 filings. they seem recognizable at least. Wedbush Tech - lower middle market guys. if i remember correctly, their ER is more widely than their IBD D.A. Davidson Industrials - seems like a decent west coast boutique. i know someone interned at davidson and then switched to GHL for FT McLean Group Consumer - no clue Trinity Capital - no clue B.Riley Tech - no clue
Thank you guys. I realize it doesn't say BB IB, so I appreciate the folks that could help out a bit. If any else has any info, please post or feel free to PM me. Thanks.
If I were you I'd just look up past analysts at those firms on linkedin to get an idea of exit ops for all of them.
I know McLean Group has a weird structure to it. They have an inverted pyramid type structure with probably 15 MD's supported by five or so associates/analysts. I am not sure how this ends up working out for the juniors in the long run. I don't even know if this is a factor but I don't think they pay their interns.
I think Wedbush is a very strong brand name; maybe strongest of all?
I feel like Wedbush's HC practice is stronger than tech though
Anyone have thoughts on Davidson/B.Riley?
mclean
Anyone have any more color? My greek brother needs to make a decision by the end of the week. Thanks!
Wedbush or DA Davidson, is Wedbush SF?
I agree that Wesbush has the strongest brand. Definitely look up former employees of all the offices on LinkedIn to see where they ended up
That's what I figured. Yes, Wedbush is in SF guyfromct.
Gun to my head ranking: Wedbush =>Davidson>Seaport/Global Hunter>Trinity>B.Riley>McLean.
Again, it depends on what you want to do. If you want to jump to (ideally, obviously a long shot) Houlihan RX, then obviously you should take Seaport. If you want to join a solid/top MM (Piper/Stifel/Baird/maybe Houlihan, maybe WFS)
This is all based on my limited knowledge via working at a mid-tier MM.
