Which BBs in Houston have good culture?
It feels like there's a lot of chatter about most Houston BBs having bad culture e.g. JPM / GS. Are these all overblown?

I've heard CS has a very tight knit culture
Same question. Instead of just good/bad culture, would appreciate to learn certain characteristics of each group.
All second hand so take with a grain of salt...
Barcap: Great culture heard that Seniors have pushed back on unreasonable client requests (not sure how true this is maybe just a pipe dream)
BofA: Have heard that they get overworked relative to dealflow, but have nice enough people
Citi: Work hard play hard culture
CS: As user above said tight knit culture generally positive things have pretty good hours for amount of deal flow
GS: Haven't heard the best things in terms of culture, but better than JPM
JPM: Have heard that they had a new group head who was pretty ruthless, hours got a lot worse
MS: Have heard they have a decent culture. Better than GS / JPM, but nothing to write home about
UBS: Good culture just no deal flow
