Very firm dependent. M&A is best for exit ops and deal flow, but other groups are highly dependent on bank

ECM/DCM are generally good for work life balance and still make street comp, but don't have the same exit ops as top M&A.

imo, a financial sponsors group that executes deals is the best option (i.e. MS, CS, Barclays, BAMLJPM)

1. Strong exit opps -- since you cover PE firms and get lots of LBO modeling reps, exits are on par with M&A.

2. Generalist experience-- You do all types of transactions (LBO, M&A, debt/equity) for PE firms and their portfolio companies. The group is also industry-agnostic, so you'll be able to learn about many different sectors. 

3. Work-life balance-- sponsors is usually one of the most relaxed groups in terms of hours and the culture at many banks are much better (lean teams is a factor).

What are the exit opps like?

I’d imagine distressed investing is one
