I know there are plenty of these threads, but here's my situation. I'm choosing between BarCap Chicago, a top MM (Jefferies, Houlihan Lokey) in NYC, Peter J Solomon and Piper Jaffray NYC.
What do I do with my life, WSO? Assuming the most important things in life are exit opps, comp and hours, of course.

Prob the top MM in NYC.. Congrats
Thanks. I should add I've preliminarily already narrowed it down to the MM and BarCap, which is where it gets a bit tougher for me.
I would go for NYC, top MM. I think that one should set you up strongly for later on. I am not sure on Barcap in Chicago so maybe there are some strong pros to consider there. Comp would be similar I assume.
Probably top MM, although the BarCap brand name could work in your favor. It really depends on how strong the Chicago office is.
MM NYC. HLHZ and Jeffries are sometimes taken over Barcap NYC so I would imagine it would make just as much sense to take the MM over a 'satellite' office
