This is your dumbest comment yet. There is no dilution in any banks name when you’re in a city outside of NYC. If you’re in IB at Lazard, Goldman, CVP, MS, etc. in the U.S. then you’re at a top level IB. This is especially true during and after COVID, where many first years have yet to meet anyone on their team and haven’t yet lived in the city of their team.

 

But I won't be remote even when I intern. This comment is confusing because if I want to exit to NYC MF PE, etc it would be harder since I'm at Lazard in SF rather than Citi in NYC. Citi is a great bank but everyone in this thread makes it seem like a no-brainer. If I am mistaken please explain why, would appreciate it

 

I'm going to assume you're an MBA associate because of your arrogance and limited intellectual depth, EVR MP literally has worse exits than other comparable firms--i.e., the name doesn't save it. The logic behind what you're saying is I should take GS in SLC over Citi in NYC. I go to a target and likely recruited at better firms than you so get out of here with your insecure d-bag posting if you're not going to be nice

 

look man, you can't really go wrong--Lazard is better and will exit just fine. You should decide how badly you want NYC because Lazard slightly edges out Citi in most categories (pay, responsibility, dealflow (if tech), prestige)

 

This just shows how stupid and insecure you are. Pathetic. Of course I'm comparing IB roles to other IB roles when talking about geography, not risk or something with GS SLC, but continue to be a moron. God help any associate+ who has to deal with your dumb ass.

Oh, I may be an MBA, but I also went to a top 10 target undergrad, was an engineer and I work at a better firm than you will (PJT/EVR), so lol at your insecurities.

 

this is incorrect, OP please ignore this user (that has more free time than they should) who has demonstrated a clear misunderstanding of how exiting to NYC MF PE works.

hey Associate 2, if you're dumb enough to think that Laz SF (or any satellite office) is anywhere near Citi in terms of exits, god help any actually competent analyst who has to deal with your dumb ass. Good luck on the job, you're clearly gonna need it. Enjoy floating to the top until you get spit out

How are you kids so damn stupid? It’s actually impressive to be so dumb and confident at the same time. OP specifically asked if the name brand/prestige is diluted because of a satellite office; nothing about exits. And on a resume, no, there is no dilution moron. What’s really going to matter is your deal experience anyways, which can be great no matter the office. And oh yea, you’re so right, there are absolutely no MFs or top tier VCs in the Bay Area, great insight!

 

bruh if you're interested in MF PE or RX, Citi NYC is a no brainer

 

I would choose Citi, have friends there that love the people there and nothing better than working on IPOs

 

Maybe I am wrong, but I was under the impression that if u accelerate u should take that offer? Also don't dox yourself
