London: small boutique specialised IB or Bloomberg Sales&Analytics programme?
Hi all,
I got accepted to a tier1 part-time masters in London (think LBS, LSE, Imperial), which allows having a full-time job.
I got an offer from a sector-specific boutique IB's M&A team, but I don't have deal experience, so I assume it will be a very long summer internship. My other option is Bloomberg's Analytics & Sales programme, and I have hi-tech sales experience.
Pros and cons of boutique IB: Deal experience Boutique Internship Lower salary (app. GBP 8-10k per annum) Very sector specific Small team (5-7 people) Exit opps?
Pros and cons of Bloomberg: I already have relevant experience in tech sales Protected weekends and snack bar Allows me to concentrate on classes and CFA/CAIA Mandatory analytics desk period sucks Exit opps?
However, my part-time program lasts 2 years, and I believe, that I would still have a decent shot securing a FO position even after 2 years at BBG, but chances are that the boutique IB would not get me a more prestigious FO job.
What do you think? Which one shall I choose?
Thank you in advance.
