Bump. Also curious.
They have been growing in the middle market, with HC as one of the strongest groups. A lot of the deals they do are ECM so IPO's and follow on offerings, but they have been expanding in M&A. I hear it is a solid bank overall.
This is spot on. Spoke to people there recently and they pretty much said this word for word, especially with regards to expanding M&A.
My friend had a 2020 SA interview with their healthcare group this week and praised the culture and deal flow.
SF or NY?

Anyone know if non target recruiting is separate? Has anyone heard anything lately regarding NYC or regional offices
NYC has been rolling for a month+ now (non-target)
when was the last superday? how many spots open
I'm non target and had a superday in SF yesterday
Is it too late to apply?
I've heard only good things. If you like healthcare and biotech, it is one of the top shops to be at. They are on tons of IPOs and work with some pretty cool companies, and their M&A practice is growing. Seems like a great bank.
Improving reputation. Has been really trying to build out an M&A platform to compliment its ECM franchise.
Poached some interesting MDs from Stifel, Lazard, BBs, (DCM team), etc. and made a sizable acquisition of LMM bank Quarton to build out sell side.
Chicago office is run by an ex-BB, BMO MD and Industrials/Transpo focused. Houston I assume is energy but no insight there.
Do you have any insight on quarton? Their reputation in the market, how the senior guys are, etc
PM me
I am pretty positive that super days are by group. I know there was a super day last week for tech in SF

Has anyone heard back from Cowen?
Cowen is a great name in healthcare and biotech. Their biggest offices for those industry groups are NYC and SF. They're also making really big moves in the cannabis industry. They see a vast amount of growth in that industry and it's a great revenue stream as some of the larger banks are "too traditional" to enter that industry. Chicago is M&A and pretty much just that, more industrial focused. They acquired a bank that specializes in M&A. Houston is Oil & Gas, same as most banks. Are you all asking about FT or SA? SA you get some input into your desired industry or product group. There's a networking event and you tell them your top industries and then you meet with the teams to see which is the best fit. The teams will pick who they think will be the best fit. This varies by office though. Some have less industry diversity. FT you're pretty much assigned to a group, but there is plenty of mobility down the road if you pay your dues.
Houston is mainly Cannabis ECM now.
Culture and people are stellar. HR is willing to help at every step.
Any news on SA Chicago?
Can anyone provide any insight on the Cowen super day?
what office?
Chicago and Detroit. FT super day lined up off cycle for December.
