Renege CS SA for MM
^^ Title. I don't want to risk the chance of very low or nonexistent conversion rates. However, CS name is better than MM for sure.

I would without a second thiought. CS is a brand name sure, but it also won't exist in 6 months and it's not like they are being awarded mandates right now... MM is less sexy, but imo worth the slight downgrade to be totally sure your internship will happen and have an actual shot at a FT offer.
Depends on what MM
Quite Top MM (Have multiple offices globally)
Hot take but CS offer prob better. Few have reneged but many are still trying to ride it out (Both SAs and FTs) As long as you get the summer you can lateral better than a MM but its up to your risk appetite
Stop fooling…job security is much more important in current environment
Do you already have the MM offer as a sure thing?
If not, do not pull out of CS for no certain offer. That would be highly irrational.
If you have an offer, there are three considerations:
If you’ve answered yes to these, you should probably not renege. But if you’re thinking that you won’t burn any bridges that will be career-limiting, you’re not feeling bold about the re-requirement/FT market, and you think the CS offer will be a dead end…that’s another story.
I'm quite certain it's a dead end... but not entirely sure. that's why i asked on this forum. thank you!
Perhaps a consideration, but these are bridges to a sinking island. Many of the people who interviewed OP will also be looking to jump ship. No one cares about people reneging on SA anyway - these aren't particularly expensive positions to fill.
Wouldn't bank on this - FT is drying up. The experience and skills gained over the summer are also worthwhile considering. Can't imagine CS is winning many mandates.
This is very much team and geography dependent.
