URGENT: Guggenheim vs Barclays for SA
Hi,
I recently received offers and have very little time to make a decision and have no idea which way to go. I was given an offer for a summer analyst position from both of these banks. I enjoyed my conversations with people from both Gugggenheim and Barclays, so at this point its up to which bank would give me a better experience, have a better culture, better comp, and better PE exits (most likely my long term goal).
Also, as far as I can see, these are generalist offers with group placement to come.
I appreciate any and all insight. Thanks!
Barclays has better PE exits, on average. MF/UMM is possible if you're lucky/prepared and MM/LMM is attainable if you want it. There are a couple sweaty groups, but overall culture is great w/ chill people.
Unless you have strong connections in Gugg's top groups, would go with Barclays.
Same thing, group dependent. Barx probably has a bit better name in terms of catching a recruiters eye for PE but Gug could be a better hands on learnin environment with a smaller class size. Best vs Best group Gug is probably more mellow hours.
You could get stuck in ecm / dcm / product at barclays. watch out if you arent well networked / placed well after summer.
Then again, you are just a summer.. so you could lateral after your SA to another BB if you really wanted to
Barclays already had SD?
Barclays is more well-known outside of finance, but Gugg will pay more. Big PE is attainable from either, with more MF/UMM volume from Barclays. Both work on big deals and have great cultures (on average)
Hello is there any chance I could private message you?
