Rank Fixed Income Trading Banks
Rank these banks in terms of if you were offered a general fixed income placement job at all the following banks, the order in which you'd accept would be... I'm not just talking about prestige/name, but where you would want to work (which includes to some degree prestige, but also type of people, culture, location etc...) I'm asking this because I think everyone is hung up on choosing the "best" name bank, but there are big differences between the cultures of some places that might lead me to choose a "lesser" name to be with "cooler" people.
JP Morgan Morgan Stanley Merrill Lynch Credit Suisse Deutsche Bank Goldman Sachs UBS Lehman Brothers
well wouldn't the rankings be kind of stupid then because not everyone fits into, or even likes, the same culture?
On a side note have you noticed banks have different levels of interest in different schools?e.g. at Cornell they all seem to looooove JP Morgan.
well i wanted to see everyone's opinion on their choices and their preferences. i'm trying to formulate mine...

i think its kinda tough for someone to talk about a firms culture without working at the places but i will do my best to make a list combinging prestige/culture based on my experiences and experiences of my friends around the street
Best to worst
LEH GS- some people love it there some people hate it, gotta meet people and decide for yourself but cant beat the prestige DB JPM MS ML CS UBS- trading is in Stamford Ct, this is a dealbreaker to me
Just wondering why anyone would want to goto ML right now? If the bonuses took a big hit?
they have really nice people working for them, at least that is my experience with recruiting so far
I am surprised Bear hasnt been mentioned as a great FI trading place...cmon people, one bad summer isnt the whole story :-)...also, Barclays is a FI powerhouse.
