In a large (>50) people IB group at a BB. Deal teams tend to be bigger. Some people prefer lean deal teams but if you screw up there are likely more people to cover for you i.e. one of my projects had 3 analysts and 1 associate. On the downside you might not get the same experience because there is not enough interesting work to go around. Also there is more people so if you dont have to click with everyone because you could always find someone else.
never heard of a group that large, sounds like it can be very inefficient? around how many junior team members do you have and how does it affect the dynamic in each deal team and other things such as recruiting, staffing, office politics, etc?
If that includes an analyst from M&A, levfin and the relevant industry group, that makes sense. If that’s 3 analysts all from the same group than that’s more than a little overkill.
All from the same group. Yeah it is tough sometimes because there might not be enough work to go around on a particular project or just too much coordinating is needed to make sure everyone is on the same page. Has its ups and downs. It varies though, you dont see 3 analysts on every deal.
