Advice on offers
Hey guys, I am quite conflicted between the two offers. Both offers are right out of undergrad in the UK. I have no plan of getting an MBA. I'm not crazy about PE and would be more interested in public markets (HF/LO).
A. Eaton Vance (MSIM) Research role (equity) - the team seems nice and more interesting work than IBD. My concern is whether I can do the job well as I didn't have prior research experience. I was wondering what the mobility is like for a LO role (thinking of going to Asia long term). Wouldn't hesitate to take it if it were a tier 1 AM offer but I'm not sure if EV is better than the IBD offer I have.
B. Top 3 BB IBD - obvious pros and cons.
Any input is appreciated!

Hope that helps.
Interested. Wht u ended up doing
Top IB or Eaton Vance ER? Is the Eaton Vance role an investing role or sell-side equity research role? If you're interested in HF/AM long term I don't see how picking EV and skipping the IB stint would be a bad choice.
Eaton Vance would be a junior analyst investing position. There is no sell-side at EV/MSIM.
EV is a good shop and being added to the MS umbrella will only increase its stance. I think either will give you the same LO/HF exits but IBD will give you more outside of LO/HF (if you change your mind).
If you're not interested, I say save yourself the IBD headache, buyside is most people's end goal. I would guess that switching internally to IBD at MS wouldn't be the hardest if you wanted to change your mind a year or two in
Seems EV is more aligned with your goals. Why not just start on the buyside?
