Based on the most helpful WSO content, both RBC and Raymond have their own strengths and it really depends on what you're looking for in your career.

If you're more interested in exit opportunities and potentially moving into private equity, then RBC might be a better choice. They have a strong reputation and their corporate banking division is well-regarded.

On the other hand, if you're more interested in research and analysis, then Raymond's Equity Research might be a better fit. They have a strong team and you would likely get a lot of exposure to different industries and companies.

Remember, it's not just about the name of the firm, but also about the team you'll be working with and the work you'll be doing. So, consider these factors as well when making your decision.

And hey, don't stress too much about it. You're in a great position having super days at both firms. Good luck!

Honestly I feel like I really do want to target private equity because I feel that I have a very entrepreneurial spirit but the work in ER definitely does seem super interesting but it seems that corp banking might be a better option if I want to do PE and it seems that the comp is a lot better. I really am having a hard time deciding. 

 


Well I don’t know anything about PE, but if you wanna do PE and that gives you the best shot then it seems pretty crystal clear my guy. Best of luck
