Would swap tech and HC, don't see HC on much of anything
Agree and updated, idk what deals HC has been doing if any
Is M&A really that bad
Yes. They are the worst group for junior experience. Turnover there is really bad even relative to UBS standards. They work amongst the longest hours in the bank for no exits.
Don't know how sponsors is so high when they fired first years, and this year return rates are gonna be awful
Don’t they have like 4 interns? Assuming only 1 or 2 get the FT role
Sponsors should be in that tiering of the really terrible groups like M&A and M&T for this ranking as they have fired analysts unlike most other groups. Rest of the list looks directionally accurate. Tech should be slightly lower as they recently lost the groups number 2 to BofA, but Tech ECM is one of the few bright spots in UBS Americas.
Is FIG really that low? Thought they were one of the stronger groups
Congrats on UBS!
Can we get a thread ranking the deck chairs on the titanic?
As long as we still hear the band playing then we are fine right?
GIG at 1 wtf
GIG falling off
What group would you have at #1 then?
Yes I’m aware GIG head leaving, I think they’ll be fine?
LF and/or FSG?
ah yes, such insights from an intern
Thank you, prospect.
