Rothschild LA vs Cowen NY
Have offers at both. Not dead set on leaving for the buyside but would like to keep my options open. Which would you choose and why? I know Rothschild is on an upward trajectory, but is that only in New York? I know Cowen is growing too. I don't have strong preferences industry wise, and a chiller environment would be a consideration too.
Unless you want to be in LA for some reason, NY is probably the way to go. NY will give you better opportunity to have a longer career in finance, in either IBD or buyside. You can always go from NY to LA, but not necessarily the other way around.
This is completely untrue. Are people just saying anything nowadays. You can absolutely go from NY to LA and LA to NY lmao.
Congrats on Cowen man!
I would go Roths LA. Placement from that group is solid, whereas cowen doesn't really have any placement. I personally would take most mm banks over cowen unless my goal was to do ecm/stay in banking long term.
What is placement like to buyside?
Ya any insight on buyside exits would be great
Rothschild La is rather new. One of my mentors worked there and ended up in corporate VC at a huge firm. They primarily work on tech M&A and have an umm-mm focus. Rothschild is a brand name and this is a new office so there is most likely a larger chance for internal promotion. Cowen does primarily ecm while Rothschild is more of a pure play advisory. Depends on what you are looking for but I’d take Rothschild, there exits are actually pretty good according to LinkedIn
Bump, any updated thoughts?
Roths
Cowen is actually dead af.
Both are MM in the US and both have been doing poor this year (at least Roths US in general). Probably comes down to specific group culture and if you want to be in NYC or on the west coast
Cowen will get you nowhere quick. Rothschild atleast is a known name and will be a lot easier to lateral from.
Hey man mind if I pm you about Rothschild LA?
