Thoughts on KeyBanc IBD?
Most of the stuff I've seen is dated. What is the opinion on KeyBanc IBD, in particular their tech group? How does it rank amongst other MM firms? Thanks.

Candidly, longtime lurker, first time commenter. Don’t know much about particular industry groups, but Key is the Goldman of Cleveland. Box seats at the Cavs, free snacks, awesome internship, Key tower, what’s not to love. Exit opps for analysts have included premier Corp dev, premier IB and the circus. Analyst comp near street, pay in Cleveland ridiculous compared to cost of living (model and bottle lifestyle). Overall a team of winners.

Not sure about the tech group. Was told by a friend who used to work there that the best groups are industrials and M&A.
Have a friend in the San Francisco office. Pay seems to be market. Hes an associate. Works about 90 hours/week. Mostly healthcare. Does a variety of stuff beyond M&A, including public offerings. The team seems to be pretty light.
This is wrong info. Assume if it’s healthcare, he in Cain Bros? They do no public offerings.
SF is healthcare and tech, and you are in one or the other, not generalist. Tech SF is mostly public offerings. Healthcare is not.
He might be confusing it with another bank.
Sorry friend is at JMP, not keybanc. Not sure why I confused the two.
KeyBanc is very strong in the middle market. I would say right behind William Blair/HW/Piper and competing with Baird and at this point is probably ahead of BMO and other MMs.
Fee wise they are tied with Baird this year in M&A. In terms of tech M&A, definitely a strong suit of Key, average deal size should be like 100MM. Competes with all the big names in MM tech banking and wins relatively frequently.
Top groups at Key: Industrials (Chemcials specifically), M&A (since they execute the Industrials/chemicals deals) and Real Estate. Tech (Former Pacific Crest) and Healthcare (Former Cain Brothers) are just as strong as well
Aren't you still in college lol? IMO you are way boosting Key's rep - they should be considered a clear step below what you usually think of as top MMs and you should absolutely not pick Key over Baird.
Even if they’re not a top MM, are they still considered decently solid? What are some firms you would group them with?
Its only February, but this is probably the most inaccurate post of 2019.
you gotta be kidding right
