CS Alternative Investments vs. JP Morgan Private Bank
I was curios from someone who has been on the street for a while and has had exposure to either of these divisions. I understand they are pretty different functionally, but in terms of exit opportunities, job prestige, hours, and pay can anyone give me any insight?
I also have an offer from a hedge fund, but I would be one of two interns. Its a 19 billion dollar fund so it seems like it could be a great opportunity, but would it be better to intern with a BB that has a more formalized training/internship program?
Thanks
Really depends on you, but in terms of prestige/exit opps, I'd say CS for sure.
AI can be extremely broad, what did CS say you would be doing within AI?
I agree with heyman800. CS AI is pretty diverse, check out these slides to get an idea: http://www.credit-suisse.com/investors/doc/2007_alternativeinvestments_…
Thanks for the replys--it was the Real Estate Private Fund group within AI. My worry was that since the group is pretty small (22 professionals in NY) and they were only taking one or two interns that it wouldn't be as great of a learning opp, but maybe I'm wrong about that. The JP offer was for the Product side of the Private bank specifically in their Alternatives group...there isn't really a lot of public info on what exactly I would be doing there though.

whats the offer from the hedge fund? what kind of hedge fund/where did they work before? JPM vs CS - id do CS (as long as its the RPE and not the RPE marketing). I know what group in JPM u r referring to.
