Corzine Denies Being Offered Worst Job in the World
Former NJ Governor and Goldman Sachs CEO Jon Corzine has denied the rumors that he's been approached to fill the vacancy left by Ken Lewis as CEO of Bank of America . I guess we can cross another one off the list. The BofA gig is quickly becoming one of the toughest jobs in America to fill. “I can...
Booz Allen Hamilton Advising Bank of America on Wikileaks
Has everyone seen this? Looks like BOA is playing strong defense. http://www.nytimes.com/2011/01/03/business/03wiki…
Gov't Banks Ding Their Best Customers
In the wake of tough new regulations prohibiting undisclosed fees, sudden rate hikes, and the general usury that has been the credit card industry's stock in trade over the past 30 years, banks are now scrambling to find a way to offset the loss of their immoral plunder (I know, me getting preachy...
BAML email structure?
first.last@ baml .com isn't working.. neither is [email protected] or [email protected]. Anyone know what the correct structure is?
BofA Cries Uncle in Debtor's Revolt
Chalk one up for the little guy, I suppose. Last week I posted a video of a Bank of America customer who was refusing to pay her credit card bill because of a rate hike she considered unwarranted. You can see the video HERE . Once the video went viral, she was contacted by Jeff Crawford, Senior VP...

BAML Charlotte Final Round Interviews October 15th
Hey all, Did anybody who interviewed with BAML in Charlotte this past friday hear back with an offer/rejection? If you did, can you post when you heard and for which group? I know it's still early, but I'm just wondering if they gave out any offers on Friday. Thanks!
RBS vs. BoA vs. MS S&T
I have interviews next week for S&T with RBS , BoA and MS. The MS one is for fixed income and the other two don't specify. Has anyone had interviews with any of these three groups recently or have any idea what types of interviews they tend to be? I know from experience and talking to others that MS...
Energy Banking BAML out of Denver?
Have you guys heard anything about the Energy Group at BAML based out of Denver? Do you know anything about culture, deal flow, exit opps? I was surprised to learn of a BB office in Denver. Is their entire energy team out of Denver and do you guys know of any other groups based out of the Denver...
Does the BoA Finance Management Associate Program offer salary?
Hello everyone, I'm currently looking into the BoA 2 year FMAP, and was wondering what sort of compensation they offer. I can't find this information anywhere, and it weighs heavily on if I will be able to go through with it. I can't afford to commute to NY everyday for 2 years if I'm making...
HELP! Will Citigroup care?
I have just finished a round of interviews at Citi and I'm waiting to hear back from them. I'm a bit worried about giving a solid first impression, so please bear with me. I currently have checking and savings accounts with Bank of America . Will Citigroup care that I have a Bank of America account?...
The Defections Continue
Some BOA ML healthcare MDs leave for Centerview. Is BOA ML going to be completely gutted by the end of this? http://www.reuters.com/article/businessNews/idUST…
Even the Yankee’s Hate BofA
Looks like previous talks of a sponsorship deal between Bank of America and the NY Yankee’s have officially ended. Although the media’s spin on it makes it sound like it was BofA’s choice to back out, alluding to the flack that Citigroup faced about spending $400 million to slap their name on...
Bye bye, Thain.
A few moments ago, BofA CEO Ken Lewis (our hero) and Merrill’s former chief John Thain hashed things out in what was referred to as an “emergency meeting”, trying to determine what exactly Thain’s future will be at the new Bank of Merrill, or whatever the hell it’s going to end up being...
Bad blood at Bank of Amerrill Lynch
This might shed a little more light on yesterday's defection of Greg Fleming and Monday's resignation of Bob McCann. It seems that they weren't interested in becoming "Toaster Salesmen", as the thundering herd has come to regard their new parent company. This is a detailed and very well written...
Special Assets Group, Bank of America
I was talking to one of my friends who works at FTI about maybe pursuing a position with them. He told me an alternative would be looking for a position within the Special Assets Group at Bank of America (where I currently work). I am not too sure on exactly what this group does. I was wondering if...
Human Resources Analyst positions
Hi, all. I'm a senior at Fordham University with an expected graduation date of May 22, 2010. I'm a psychology major and human resources management minor with a 3.1 GPA. I have completed several internships in human resources. So, I am fairly familiar with several Human Resources Information Systems...
DBGT vs BAML vs IBM
Hey everyone, I have internship offers from DBGT as a software developer (in their new office in RTP strictly for software), BAML as a program manager (Not definite, but the recruiter noted that it was my preference), and IBM Extreme Blue as a software developer. Coming from an engineering...
Internship Advice - Two internship offers
I am struggling to decide which job I should take for this summer. I currently have two internship offers and I am waiting to hear back on a 3rd place. I have an internship at Merrill Lynch working with Global Wealth Management under a team of executives with no pay, and I have a job at Bank of...
Bank of America Merrill Lynch SA recruiting
Has anyone heard anything from ML for SA position? Have all the spots been filled yet? When is the deadline for all final decisions?
MS Chicago v Citi Chicago v BAML NY v UBS NY
I am from a midwest target school UC/NU and I've received offers that I'm having trouble debating. I've received offers from name brands such as MS and Citi Chicago but also banks such as BofA and UBS New York. My ultimate goal is to end up in New York for PE . Should I take a Chi summer position...
BAML Dress Code
Anybody know the dress code at BAML ? I've heard that BofA was business formal (suits required daily), whereas Merrill was business casual (dress shirts and slacks), but that now it is all business formal. Does this mean analysts wear suits everyday? Assuming not, how often is a suit worn (and how...
BofA to start filling out the pink slips...
Experts are estimating that with Bank of America’s recent purchase of Merrill Lynch, approximately 27,000 employees will be sent packing (nearly 10% of the total workforce). Although most of the slashes will be to back office operation reps, The Charlotte Observer reports that a decent chunk of...
Merrill Employees Worried?
I don't think so. It's the BofA employees who should be keeping one eye on the classifieds. According to the Charlotte Observer, BofA chief executive Ken Lewis is determined to keep Merrill's 15,000-strong thundering herd in the BofA corral. Yeah, by replacing his own FA's. It just doesn't make...
Ok, not to beat a dead horse, but...
So, with the leftover Lehman employees bailing out their office windows and BofA and Merrill folks wondering what the future holds for them, let's weigh in on the disaster that is Wall Street today. What is everyone thinking this morning?

Lack of News Coverage Today
I cannot understand with one of the biggest events to hit the markets in decades going on. why none is covering anything about Lehman or ML and BofA . Dealbreaker made a point about this and I can't understand why there is no TV news on it. I know hurricane Ike is going on but political news is...
When there's blood in the streets it's time to buy!
It seems that Bank of America is taking the old saying to heart. It’s been bloody obvious from the start of this calamity and I’m not just talking about Lehman Brothers here. That anyone smart enough to have kept well capitalized through this would have some bargain shopping on their hands....
MS FSE vs. BAML Corp Banking
Hi Everyone! I got offers from Morgan Stanley FSE (does internal m&a and internal consulting) and BAML Corp Banking . The pay is exactly the same, but I'm wondering about exit opps in terms of business school or IB later. Which is the better job offer? Any advice on this would be greatly...
Bank of America/ML Global Investment Solutions
Hey guys, Can anyone shed some light on BoA / ML 's Global Investment Solutions group? I have a general offer and was told that we would be having a conversation in the spring if I choose to sign to discuss placement. From my understanding, GIS is Wealth Management' s own capital markets group ....
BAML S&T Analyst
Just got an offer for BofA-ML S&T first-year analyst. It's standard (70k base, 10k signing bonus). I'm debating whether to accept -- they haven't mailed me the offer yet so I don't know when it explodes. It's the Credit Trading desk. I was wondering: 1)What kind of bonus should I expect? 2)Anyone...
ML legacy email
Quick question. If I have a business card from someone received in January in which their email was xxxx.xxxx@ ml .com, is there email address going to be the same today? Or have they changed over to a B of A email? Anyone at the firm or with friends at the firm know this answer?
BofA/ML Drug Test
Word is that BofA/ML private wealth management new hires are not getting drug tested. Can anyone shed some light on this? I have a friend who, in view of this information, has continued to blaze regularly, and we're curious if that's a bad idea. (Note: I'm not here to debate morals or character or...
FT offers from MER before BAC acquisition
For any SA's from MER that received FT offers before the acquisition, what were the compensation #s being discussed? I'm specifically looking for information on IB , but also interested to hear anything from S&T , ER , etc....
BofA/ML new IBD class
Has anyone heard anything from HR for the new 2009 IBD analyst class for BofA / ML ? Have you received your sign on bonus? Any idea of when training will take place?
BoA S&T summer offer ... fishy?
I did a first round interview on-campus, got called today by one of the interviewers, and I received a summer analyst offer for the Sales and Trading division. Weird? I asked the guy why there weren't any additional interviews and he replied with something about how the BoA- Merrill merger meant...
Absorbing Losses
What exactly happens when the government says it will "absorb" BAC's losses? I would think they simply pay BAC book value for a troubled asset so that BAC loses/gains nothing on the transaction. Alternatively, can they reimburse BAC for any losses or asset devaluations that occur? I imagine this is...
Why did BAC share price fall on recent news?
This may sound naive, but I had a question about the recent BofA news concerning the Company's request for more bailout funds. It is my understanding that when the government bailout was announced and individual banks received bailout funds, the market values of investment banks increased. Now that...
Prediction: Big Money Will No Longer Come from Public Companies
After reading about the culture clash between MER and BAC it seems that Ken Lewis is going to have a big impact on the new Wall Street. I think most if not all of the large banking public companies will be mostly institutionalized and smaller, more nimble firms that engage in more risky investment...
Merger Arb: BofA / ML
Looking at maybe doing a merger arb trade on this deal. Spread is at nearly 18% today, up from about 12%, where it had been for a few weeks. Anyone have any idea why? Any thoughts on this trade?
anyone applying to Bank of America?
Had a first round on campus interview for Bank of America with some recent alums. Was told to wait but haven't heard back in 10 days. Just wondering if anyone's been invited to their superday .
Come to think of it, what happens to ML's huge UK tax credit post BofA?
This briefly came to mind when the merger was announced, but the curiosity has gotten the better of me, so I'm hoping the experts here can shed some light on this. If some of you recall, FT (amongst others) ran an article in mid-August describing how Merill booked their credit derivative losses...
Merrill Lynch recruiters
Why are there still Merrill Lynch recruiters coming to my college campus? Are they just going through the motions, or is MER actually planning to recruit, interview, and give offers for full time positions? At the event last week, the MER recruiter insisted they will still be hiring for IB ,...
B of A interview
