Analyst 1 in IB-M&A, shame nobody has responded. Maybe one of these topics will help:
More suggestions...
Fingers crossed that one of those helps you.
Bump
Super undermarket pay so they tend to attract non-traditional backgrounds, (think Big-4 TAS, ER, regional IB) which translates to a very high competence gap.
Heard their analysis tends to be very simplistic (nobody there under the Serent-level Principals know how to build a monthly model), so your translatable experience will be highly limited.

Dumb question but what does “SWIM” mean here
"Someone who isn't me"
Is this true? Looking at their website, its a mix of traditional and non-traditional people, and they focus on software rollups. I def want modeling reps and I assume the Principals aren’t doing all the LBO / m&a models… so has to be the juniors right? Genuinely curious
Bad culture, low pedigree.
Don't take my word for it. Conduct this search on your own time:
LinkedIn search bar —> “banneker partners associate” —> coffee chat anybody under the Sr. Asso. level
Once you get them on the phone, ask them any question under the 400 BIWS Advanced sections
They can’t answer because they all come from hyper non-traditional backgrounds (i.e. ER, regional boutique IB, straight out of UG, etc.)
P.S. they recently fired an Associate after 2 days when they learned that his onboarding would be slightly delayed after recovering from a car accident. Take that for what you will in terms of culture.
Edit: the fact that I keep getting MS bombed for advice that pretty much amounts to “talk to their employees” should be fairly indicative of the type of experience you’d have there
