Based on the most helpful WSO content, Stifel is generally considered a middle-market investment bank. Insights from previous discussions highlight the following:
Culture: Stifel's culture has been described as top-heavy, with senior management often being a point of contention. There have been criticisms regarding a lack of support for junior teams and instances of nepotism in hiring practices. However, these issues may vary by group and office.
Strongest Groups: Historically, Stifel has been strong in certain areas like Consumer, Healthcare, and Industrials/Business Services. Their restructuring group has also been noted for its performance, with some significant mandates in recent years.
Recent Performance: Stifel has been competitive in the middle-market space, often compared to banks like BMO and Baird. They have managed to attract talent from rivals, such as Guggenheim's corporate credit traders, which aligns with their business model. However, there have been concerns about senior management's priorities and decision-making, which could impact their trajectory.
If you're considering Stifel, it would be wise to evaluate the specific group and office you're targeting, as culture and opportunities can vary significantly within the firm.

They’re a joke. Stay away
Why’s that
They’re known to rescind offers (I know someone personally in my circle that it happened to)
Top heavy model - better than nothing out of undergrad
Heard tech never really recovered from the cantor split couple years ago
Any idea on their top groups?
Just check the tombstones on the website - if there are a lot for industrials or services for example and they are real m&a (adviser to seller) and they seem to do them at a good pace then it’ll signal the strongest grouo
industrials, KBW, healthcare
Tech and HC are top internally
Do you know what their comp is like for analyst / associates?
I would like to know too
Does anyone if T&L sits in NYC for juniors?
