1st of all how did u get an offer so late? Pretty sure BBs were done recruiting in Dec (genuinely curious)

Incoming S&T SA here, HK office - imo JPM > BAML since JPM's the most well-regarded out there. Also i think BAML's rotational program is kinda stupid tbh, 3 rotations and forces u to do both ficc and equity (and both trading and sales I believe). But choose the bank that u feel is the best culture fit - I received multiple offers and chose a lesser-ranked Euro BB over an American BB because I liked the culture there better. Just my 2 cents hope this helps
