Stay far away from BMO. There really are only two groups you should even consider and that is Metals & Mining and Leveraged Finance. Metals & Mining is BMO's bread and butter but it's really only based in Canada. Leveraged Finance is the highest revenue-generating and fastest-growing group at the firm in the U.S. Ironically, the culture of both groups are absolute crap. Plotting my lateral escape each and every day.
Why is the IB side so much worse than the CB side? lol
PUI had everyone quit in the fall, would avoid. I was able to lateral out and am thankful each and every day. The name is strong enough to let you lateral down the road because you'll become competent building models and decks on your own at 3am while your associates and vps are sound asleep and your interviewers will take pity. The culture across the firm is terrible with the amount of politics and gossip involved. At least the lateral market is hot and you can say "my entire team quit" and have a valid reason for leaving 1 year in with no deals closed. And like the poster above said, Lev Fin has the worst culture out of any group I've ever heard of.
why does BMO IB have to be so shit my goodness god help us
BMO Metals & Mining or bust. Don't join BMO if M&M is not the group you are in
To everyone saying join M&M, you realize that other than dealflow, its is a terrible experience? It's like BMO personified, except you work on marquee deals.
