This forum has a lot of discussion on BB vs EB and the nuances of the two, but I haven't seen many discussions on what life is like at BB satellite offices. Out of personal curiosity, does anyone have any insights into what these offices are like? Let's assume for simplicity that we're talking about small to moderate sized offices (not as large as the mothership obviously but more than 1 MD and support staff) and ones that generate revenue as well (actually source deals, not just back office support hubs). Would be really interested in hearing any perspectives and opinions!

As a junior, you develop less of an internal network as you are physically removed from most of the product groups, and your industry coverage will be skewed towards whatever's dominant in your region. Exit options also conditioned by the regional business mix. You usually do better in terms of personal finance, as SF aside, cost of living is surely going to be lower than at one of the major hubs (local tax might be lower too). For seniors, the kind of politics they have to play differs: they are managing their visibility with the head office.

The truth is you're the weak. And I'm the tyranny of evil men. But I'm tryin', Ringo. I'm tryin' real hard to be the shepherd.
