Where does EVR stand in terms of learning and exit ops for analysts?
For background, I am a student at a top target school (HYPWS) and was a SA in EVR's 2021 class. I have received the return offer for the M&A group and have another week and a half to decide on accepting the offer. I have a few connections at a few top BBs where alumni from top groups can vouch for me and was wondering if it's worth it for me to try and recruit for these BBs FT even with the EVR offer in hand?
I definitely enjoyed my SA experience at EVR but wanted to get some more insight around exit opportunities and just name recognition on the street. Obviously from a compensation perspective, EVR is a no-brainer compared to BBs but I think I value learning skillsets such as modeling over just the compensation, especially this early on in my career. I'm not sure if PE is the right path for me and I know that BBs will have more name recognition if I try to exit into non-finance roles post-banking. Is EVR still a solid choice for me to accept?

Assuming you are serious, you gotta keep in mind that FT recruiting has kicked off at most of the top BBs already so if you want to recruit you better hurry because both JPM and GS have done rounds of SDs already
If anything, I’ve heard EB analysts get a way better training experience because you are given more responsibility, smaller deal teams, etc.
Let’s be honest- you aren’t learning modeling in the 2 week Wall Street Prep session at any bank. You learn how to model when it’s 2am and you’re trying to finish a model in time for your MDs 9am meeting. Evercore is going to offer as good a training ground as any over a 2 year analyst stint.
unless you plan on leaving finance in the next 2 years, EVR all the way. The name is very well respected among MBB & Corp Dev at the sexiest companies too. Lastly, if you ever have doubts about finance alltogether, your EVR experience will still be held in high regard at all the MBA programs since outside of HSW, a large percentage of the population is very gun-ho about IB & EVR is one of the most sought out companies.
Literally the only intance I wouldn't take EVR & would choose a BB is if you intend to go into Marketing, Product Management, SWE, Data Science. Those are basically the only high-ish paying jobs where EVR name will be considerably weaker compared to JPM, or MS.
if this isn’t a troll it’s a dumb move man. there were only a handful of ppl that fit this profile and assuming some have accepted narrows down even more
