So, I'm just wondering...we often hear many debates on group selection, and exit opps: Citi vs CS vs Moelis vs Greenhill....M&A vs TMT vs LevFin etc.
But what about those coming in as post-mba associates? Does group/firm even matter anymore? obviously your pay is correlated with dealflow, but is this the only deciding factor? Do associates even want M&A anymore?
Who cares if its Jefferies or RBC or GS, if pay isn't too variable, and you plan on staying anyway?

better firm/group = better exit ops, this isnt rocket science
Are you missing my point rocket scientist?
The point is, most associates aren't looking for exit opps - they are looking to make MD
