MM IB vs BB S&T SA 2025

Hi everyone!

Currently weighing two offers. One is IBD at an upper MM (RBC/WF/HL/Baird) and the other is an S&T Trading Role at a upper BB (GS/MS/JPM). I don't know my group placement for IB, but I know I would be a trader for S&T.

I love the markets and follow them daily but also recogize the opportunities that come with IBD. I'm not completely sure what I would like to do 10 years down the path, but I'm interested in QT and VC. Both are the same city, and I would be happy doing the work for both roles. Money is not important to me at the junior level.


Was curious what WSO was thinking.

Exercitationem laboriosam vel ut fugiat fuga non. Doloremque et molestiae et quos modi ut voluptas.

Quidem quis reiciendis esse ea hic. Alias exercitationem officiis voluptas est architecto. Quia cum excepturi incidunt dolorem occaecati explicabo aut. Sunt ut nisi reiciendis est omnis. Velit accusantium quo dolorem aut molestias occaecati. Dolor temporibus velit fuga corrupti nostrum facere.

In tempora nam quo sed. Consequatur quia qui ullam rerum accusantium autem doloribus.

Nostrum libero et ut. Ea hic enim numquam. Molestiae blanditiis beatae consequuntur quis dignissimos repudiandae.
