nope, all great opportunities. Follow your gut.
Why would you do DB over LB? That's a dumb move.
If you got S&T, do that.
The world has changed. And we must change with it.
i don't see how its a dumb move - and I don't work for either firm.
they're both good firms with good reputations - and don't try and use league tables to justify a decision
choose based on the people - both look good on a resume
Yeah I would definitely choose the group the group you would enjoy working with most.
