Citi Commercial Banking vs. JPM MMSI

Would love to hear views on JPM Commercial Bank - Middle Market Banking & Specialized Industries Analyst Program vs Citi Commercial Bank Associate Program.

I understand one is analyst vs. associate role but considering culture, long-term comp, exit ops, WLB, and clientele. Which do you think has more upside?

Offered: JPM- Analyst: $82k + $4-12k (bonus range) -SF Citi- Associate: $110k (bonus not specified) - DAL

Both are ok starting points in the industry but both aren’t serious players in middle market so long term you would want to go elsewhere most likely. The Citi role would have way better pay relative to cost of living. In the long term San Francisco is a better market for commercial banking but you can move there later. 

 

Jpm would be fine in a market they’ve already been in for a long time like Chicago or New York. But for San Francisco and most of the country a top player is Wells and then BofA for upper middle market. Then comes regionals like comerica and union bank. Svb completely dominates tech.
