dont really know too much about baml or citi. ubs used to be top shop but not sure now. i wouldnt do HLHZ over the others unless its restructuring....
I would go with BAML Tech M&A. I honestly can't stand UBS, I hate their culture and wouldn't wish what they put their analysts through on my worst enemy. What really sucks is that they still slave drive their analysts and the exit ops aren't as great anymore. It's taking out a loan 400k or an asset it devalues beneath that but you still have to pay the full principal, WTF. Merill still at the end of that BAML so you should be able to parlay some good connects off that. Although it would seem the hedge fund community's more prevalent in LA ergo easier to network, but don't quote me on that.
BAML Tech. Awesome group of guys (Associate/VP level not sure about the analysts but I assume the same) & and they are doing a ton of cool stuff. Very well thought of group.
Second the BOA tech comment
did you summer at UBS LA? Or did you just get an offer after the superday yesterday?
