Not sure what "FA" means at Rothschild, unless it's really IBD as well "financial analyst" is vague. Same deal though choose the closest related to investment banking. No one will care if you're at a BB doing the wrong job. That's like being a teller at BAnk of America over an investment banking analyst at dodge and cox (yeah I know recently acquired).
I don't really understand the question... Are you looking to do investment banking? These questions are so asinine... are you trying to frustrate people or are you genuinely so uninformed that you don't know what the right decision is here. Use the search function. Why would you try to get a job outside of IBD so that you could spend more time trying to move into IBD later on down the road? The shortest distance between 2 points is a straight line.

Do you even have offers at all these places?
lol why you so mad?
That's the point. I'm not exactly sure which part of finance I want to delve into yet, hence the point of the thread. I'm trying to compare the pros and cons of each company and their different job functions.
BTW this is an internship. If I do rothschild or blackrock, am I gonna be stuck in those fields due to the poor exit opps? Blackrock is AM so would that limit me in some ways?
whereas the suntrust name and location kinda sucks (even though their name is getting much better due to their recent big deals), would the IB experience be more valuable?
Roth or Goldman PWM. I don't care if it is IBD- it is SunTrust in Atlanta, there is nothing 'better' about that.
This is blatantly wrong. If a banker were looking at his experience looking to hire for full time or even for another internship, then SunTrust would by far be the best option of those listed.
This is absolutely ridiculous. There is no way anyone that works in investment banking would encourage someone to take a PWM position.
If his goal is working in finance a front office IB position - albeit at a not particularly prestigious firm such as SunTrust - is 1000x better than a PWM internship that has next to no relevant skills for investment banking.
Plenty of people intern at lesser banks and then shop their offer. A lot easier to go IB>>PWM than the other way around.
It's really just a question of what you want to do full time. That being said, an IBD internship is easily the most impressive experience so even if you decided you wanted to do something in wealth management later, the banking experience would be the best option. If the Rothschild experience is actually in IB and it's just an acronym for financial advisory, then I would go that route over SunTrust because it's a better name but the way you listed it, it sounded more like a wealth management role. Regardless, do you have offers for all these positions? If you have the offers, then take the best one, but if this is a hypothetical question where you still haven't heard back from all places then it's a moot point until you do.
Beyond the obvious part where we know he did actual investment banking work, the fact that he was willing to work at some shit shop and likely make pibs and bind his own pitchbooks tells me the kids wants to actually to IBD. It also shows that the kid is not a prestige whore = eg. Actually understands investment banking. It's not like "GS and MS" always get paid the most or something so that argument goes out the window as well.
Anyway revise advice to Rothschild IF it is banking. If not you should go to SunTrust.

Yeah I would think so since it is generally recommended to intern in a field that is most related to IBD.
Rothschild..
If it's for an internship, do suntrust ibd, get an offer, and then network so you can recruit for FT positions at other banks.
If it's full time, that's tougher.
Choose SunTrust.

FA = Global Financial Advisory (GFA) = IBD
In which case this is easy, take Rothschild. Serious name.
Also got Jpm commercial banking and GS PWM

Goldman PWM is in ATL as well.

haha at Tex. Completely agree.
If a resume with "Private wealth management" at goldman sachs came across the desk versus even say "Joe's investment bank party of 10 people"... I'd go ahead and interview the guy with the Joe's investment bank.
