Will I need an MBA to achieve my goal?
I am interested in leveraged finance loans syndication. I went to a non-target state school and started off in Big 4 audit which was awful.

Why do iBankers hate on commercial but not corporate bankers?
Hate may be too strong a word, but from what I have gathered, it seems that some investment bankers hold contempt for commercial bankers but not corporate bankers. I've always understood these two types to work the same job but for different-sized companies. Is size of the business that important?
