personal preference. do you want a boutique or bb?
They are both very good! I would do Evercore because I feel like you would get more responsibility there.
Summer or full time? I think that might factor into the decision considerably.
go to ms that names till carries some serious weight, even if its an industry group.
Morgan Stanley.
Evercore the quality of your experience makes you a great banker not the brand name you have.. the experience will bring you the $$$ and brand name..
as if the quality of experience at ms was shit.....
Morgan Stanley hands down. I don't care if you are pitching all day every day for two years. Morgan Stanley.
Evercore is nice. But seriously, Morgan Stanley.
Evercore over coverage group.
OP, some details might help us give some more pointed advice - what do you want to do in 2 years? Are you set on finance and that's the world you want to remain in? Evercore might have a strong case in that scenario - but the name doesn't mean much outside of Wall St. MS is a global brand, huge network, and you can do a variety of different things. Your experience can really vary by group there, but I doubt it can be "bad". Also, if this is for SA, there are more advantages to doing it at MS than at Evercore IMO - you can always switch shops after a summer, doing so from MS is probably a bit easier.
Also, if your thinking about bschool, being at a top boutique and getting great recs tends to be more advantageous.
Morgan Stanley is the way to go in this situation. Evercore is a good brand but MS is top 2/3 in the banking world
Evercore all the way
Evercore unless it's MS M&A

Evercore hands down.
Wow, this was the least helpful thread ever. How's the poor guy supposed to decide based on this?
Doesnt matter. This site started going down in advice once high schoolers joined.
What did we do? If anything your advice will be better appreciated and stand out, we're not stopping you from posting. We're here because you're posting.
ALWAYS go BB over boutique.
1) You will have more deal flow, greater name recognition and better access to headhunters.
2) It will look better on b school apps.
3) It will be more impressive to your girlfriends' parents.
4) You will get significantly better on the job and pre-start training.
5)You will have a bigger analyst class and therefore more friends at work and therefore a geometrically larger network.
6) You will have the opportunity to work on M&A, debt and equity as opposed to just M&A.
7) You won't become a bitter boutique analyst who spends all his time on WSO cheerleading for boutiques.
That's not to say Evercore isn't legit, but think of it in terms of a fantasy football draft. Taking Evercore over MS is like taking Peyton Manning first overall instead of Adrian Peterson. Sure, Peyton Manning is good, but YOU WOULD NEVER PASS UP ON ADRIAN PETERSON IF YOU HAVE THE CHANCE TO DRAFT HIM.
this ^
BB>Boutique MS>>Evercore
for seniors it's a whole different game though.
MS anyday
Evercore... instead of being one slave.. you will get responsiblities and access to senior management which you will never get at MS..
no, you'll definitely still be a slave at Evercore too
Morgan Stanley
