Top bank
Elaborate a bit maybe?
Culture: Bad (sweatshop, lots of pitching = low morale) Prestige: Obviously below any BB / EB, below the MMs (Jefferies, WB, etc.), probably on same level as a Stifel Exit Ops: LMM, MM (rare) Comp: Below street Pros: Obviously a global brand that's recognized everywhere
Thanks this was very helpful. In terms of groups, which ones would you say are the best?
m&a and financial sponsors are their best groups
Have seen analyst go to tiger cub
lol tiger cub did screw up
honesty is the best policy.
The only good group that they have is within securitized finance, specifically MBS and sales and trading within MBS.
Has the Nomura application for NY closed (not Greentech)? I don't see it on their website
I checked the old WSO posts and they did recruiting all the way till Sept? Did they just accelerate it by 3 months then?
