So I currently work in a RX group and am looking at lateral options to go more traditional IB at aBB. I've done a significant amount of networking and found that there aren't very many seats open right now.
I am in process with a BB in Chicago (JPM/Citi) doing Industrials and a BB Healthcare group in SF (JPM/DB). What are the pros/cons? How would each look in recruiting?

Bump?
Anyone?
Disclaimer that I'm not in IB(as you can see at my signature), but I've also heard pretty widely that nobody cares. Deal Experience > Brand name > Location.
Any hit won't be because of your brand name but because you aren't in NYC to have coffee chats with network contacts who work in PE.
