Rothschild vs. Jefferies in North America?

Any current views on the two in NYC? Currently weighing lateral opportunities at both for Sr Associate / Jr VP.

Would like to know culture, comp, hours, prestige / exits. 

 

Weird to be comparing prestige / exits if you'll be joining at the VP level. This is your exit. You could lateral to other banks but very rare to be trying to exit to PE. What groups are you considering for each bank? Jefferies as a whole is a better bank in the US but can't really comment much more unless you know what groups you'd be joining at each bank.

 

At that level you should be comparing MDs and subcerticals and you are working under.If you're that dumdum (no offense) then I'm calling cap on being a VP

Joking aside you have to evaluate what will be your niche (you’ll likely specialize as a mid level, but others can comment) and how that bank performs in that sub vertical compared to others.

I’m not too knowledgeable about the type of stuff you’re asking for bank reps and all but have enough to direct ‘how you should be thinking about it’ maybe

 

Non tenetur iste ab et. Ratione praesentium ipsa velit cum excepturi. Aut quaerat et enim et id quo. Sed nihil magni et dignissimos. Et delectus mollitia aut dolorem nemo ratione.
