Evercore MP or Mckinsey SF FT?
I don't want to be in consulting or ib for more than 2 years, just wanna learn about biopharma space and get into biotech vc. I'm between 2 offers for full-time right now:
Evercore in Life Sciences banking division (Menlo Park) or Mckinsey SF is generalist.
Pros of Evercore: I'll be only on biotech deals and can learn much more about the field and how to think strategically about business from a finance perspective + more pay
Cons of Evercore: Not as well known, so may not add that stamp to my resume that Mck would
Pros of Mckinsey: Good to have on resume, will add that stamp to have my resume picked up consistently for future jobs
Cons of Mckinsey: I don't think I'm gonna learn anything that concrete in the 2 years that I can apply back to my career aspirations + no healthcare focus + less pay
Thoughts everyone?
I took a McK offer over a top EB offer in new york .... and i wished I had done the opposite
Plus u could always lateral to consulting after a few years (i've worked w a few) or during business school
adding some points on HSS and PMP at McK. there are always so many engagements in these industries so even if you are a generalist... it's very easy to "Specialize" in them. Unlike say TMT.
From what I've heard though is that it's hard to get your associate or higher-up to let you specialize in PMP unless you have Phd since most of the PMP team will be staffed with graduate degrees. So I might get a few here and there, but it'd still be pretty diverse.
Go to Menlo Park. Not directly BioPharm but personally have bought out three MedTech companies based there in last 18 months. 2 Years around that level of activity, building the valuation/banking skillset, and making connections is far more valuable than the more recognized name.
Do Evercore MP.
No brainer here imo - go with Evercore MP. The skills you learn in banking (let alone from a top bank like Evercore) will be much more applicable. Besides, I guarantee you people in the VC/Growth/PE will be as impressed if not more with Evercore stamp than a Mck stamp. And it’s much much easier to go from IB to Consulting, but so much harder the other way around. Take Evercore offer and don’t look back. Congrats.
Evercore hands down
I'd die for your Evercore offer.
This is what you get for commenting on the IB message board lol
Do you think differently? I commented on the consulting board and got similar responses tbh
Mostly joking, but for your goals I would go with EVR
PM me if you end up taking the Evercore MP offer.
are u in the MP office with EVR?
