Accepted an offer from a Tier 2 RX shop (Greenhill/Gugg/Satellite HL/Miller Buckfire) and got the JPM Superday Waitlist email. If given an offer from JPM, which would be the better offer in your opinion? I want to exit into vanilla buyout private equity.
edit: thx for responses

Congrats on Miller Buckfire
not at Miller, but do u have anything helpful? thanks!
When did you get the JPM waitlist email
few weeks ago. superdays in the fall
Same but already signed. Not really sure what the deal is with the fall Superdays.
How does the JPM waitlist even work? Is it guaranteed superday in the fall
I mean if you just wanna do general run of the mill PE, I imagine JPM IB would be the way to go
If it’s miller backfire or hl non-nyc/la, then pick Jpm. If it’s gugg/ghl rx, then it really depends on jpm group and your goal
are JPM offers group specific?
Assuming this is for lateral?
Unless you really like rx, you should go with JPM. And I work in Rx lol.
But you don't have an offer from JPM yet, so if the other offer is exploding I would probably just take that.
If it's Greenhill or Guggenheim RX, I'd go with those unless you know which group you are going to end up at JPM at. Of course, if you're more into M&A/Capital Markets then JPM is the way to go, but I assume you have SOME interest in RX given you recruited for it.
Out of that RX list, only GHL is the one that has solid buy-side placement. Not so sure about others (GUGG has a big class so placement can be more volatile). So it really comes down to JPM vs GHL RX. If it's a top group at JPM (M&A, HC), then go for it (unless you're really interested in RX). If not, then I don't think there's that much of a difference in buy-side recruiting
