UBS NY/SF/LA

Hi guys,

I wanted to know a little more about the three different UBS offices... just anything general in terms of the work they do, size of the office, the different groups and how they're perceived on the street would be great.

Also had a couple of specific questions:

  1. I'd assume one'd get the best experience out of NY at this point after what happened in the LA office? And how is LA compared to SF now? I know they lost a lot of their top people (Moelis, Mahmood, Raich, etc.), so how's the quality in terms of the work they're doing now?

  2. I seem to remember that the SF office had a financial sponsors/lev fin + restructuring group before... is it solely FSLF without restructuring now? I know that in the NY it's still all in one group... but what about SF?

 

bump

how about i narrow down the question to UBS LA vs UBS SF? more specifically LA, since moelis, raich, mahmood, woo all left (anyone else?), where does that office stand on the westcoast food chain now? how many group heads are still left in the office?

 

moelis's leaving does not fare well for ANY ubs office, east or west coast. after all he was president of investment banking of americas. ubs la wont be as strong as it used to be, but it still has a better rep than ny and sf.
