Wells Fargo Best groups
I've been doing some light recruiting and Wells seems solid. The juniors have been really cool, comp. is in line with the street, and I think they have tremendous room to grow.
But I want to start networking with the strong groups at the bank for placement purposes. I am interested in both product and coverage groups... pretty much open to anything but FIG. What are the strongest groups at the WF?
Numerous threads on the topic but easy answer is REGAL and Industrials. FIG, Levfin, Sponsors, and E&P might be okay? TMT could be okay but outside looking in is mediocre right now, depends on what they do in the next two years. If your goal is PE and you’re not in the first two groups, best bet is probably lateraling somewhere better
Nah, you can get PE from average groups at Wells too. Dont needa lateral out
Depends I think you can get LMM-some regional MM offers from the "ok" groups at WF but good MMs like Genstar or Lindsay Goldberg are not happening/rare even in the stronger groups honestly. UMM/MF PE obviously out of the question besides for REPE.
Seems like REGAL and FIG at Wells is the move
Hands down REGAL
Agree with a lot of what’s been said here.
Want to highlight, was at sweet green the other day and overheard a couple WF analysts say “Wells Fargo?…More like Ass Fargo!”
Tells you a little something about the culture I think
Having a hard time understanding.
Were they shitting at their own bank or was this more of a frat move of saying they get ass?
Regal, Industrials, FIG. Maybe sponsors too
WF essentially shut down their sponsors business the past 4 years, and is only just re-entering
I second this. But a big focus is to grow out that sponsor group. so still a work in progress, but worth a gamble if you want FSG and like the aspects of being part of the growth
Looks like they had a bunch of BX deals last year and looks like they advised on an Apollo deal earlier this month
WFC was brought into the Univar LBO because it involved a massive ABL. Essentially brought in for their balance sheet.
Every single one of those ~10 banks who underwrote Univar was named "M&A advisor" for Apollo so it's just a league table / title they didn't actually do any sort of advising.
