Starting at a EB ECM group or MM M&A group
I’d much rather prefer starting in a covered group / different product group but starting at a EB is hard to pass up as well. Need help on deciding. Idk what to do.

Career Resources
If you want a career in PE choose M&A otherwise I would go with EB Ecm. Also explore options whether you can later lateral to an industry group at EB.
Do you think it would be possible to internally lateral to a different group after about a year ?
Happens at bulges all the time, maybe ask a few former analysts that exited to buy side
Depends on the MM but generally would give the slight edge to MM M&A because it keeps open most options.
If you want to become a career banker moving from a reputed MM to any BB/EB shouldn’t be hard after 2 years when they have their analyst classes exiting into the buyside.
The only exception to this is if you’re 100% sure about IB or Capital Markets, and then you’ll just benefit from better working hours.
if money/ ops are your main concern I think the average person starting their career at MM M&A would make a little more
