Instead, I see all the boutique i bankers try to come to Big Fives.

Plus, I don't think the claim that GMP is the most profitable I bank in Canada is legit..

 

GMP has some of the highest paid traders, research analysts, and bankers on the street. They make a lot of money financing oil & gas companies. You can't compare these guys to other boutiques. As an analyst, I'd rather start at a big-5 or Genuity. However, GMP is a great place for S&T/Research, and for senior bankers with connections in O&G.

I agree with the comment on Genuity. The lifestyle at CIBC/RBC M&A is just as rough.

 

Some boutiques do pay more than the big 5 (not significantly at the junior level). Also, I don't think anyone at a Canadian boutique works harder than at the bank-owned dealers...
