Top group at EB vs average group at BB - London

Hi Monkeys,

Lately, there has been a lot of threats about EBs in London. I was wondering how would you decide between a top group at LAZ/EVR/PWP vs an average group at GS/MS/JPM?

I disagree for the DB/UBS part. it comes to my mind some people that in the last years made it to top MF/UMM from these places.

go on with the MS if make you fell better I don't care.

 

Except from top USBB, I’d take the EB job. Better pay, leaner teams, advisory only. Now if you are dead set on MFPE you’d be marginally better off at a lower BB but even that is debatable. Fit with the respective teams is what you should consider first imo.
