William Blair Chicago VS RBC NYC SA
Thinking which one would be a better experience for Tech M&A? M&A within tech group and RBC has a M&A product group and Technology coverage group. Mainly looking to do technology PE after. Thanks!

Also, definitely prefer NYC but open to Chicago

William Blair has better exits compared to RBC.
What about exits in NYC?
I didn't work for Blair but did do MM IB in Chicago. It's tough (but possible) to go to NYC from Chicago IB. There's just a ton of supply in NYC. It is, however, quite common to go to other cities (SF for example).
Also, there's not a ton of tech PE in Chicago, but there are certainly notable names like Thoma Bravo and Vista.
