I'm currently deciding between an offer from a Mid-tier BB for IB in NY (think BAML/Citi/CS) and a Top-tier BB for Global Markets in HK (think GS/MS/JPM).
My eventual goal is to work in Asia, but would prefer working in IB.
Can somebody elaborate on the pros/cons of each and what you would do personally?
