From the perspective of doing 2 years in banking and prioritizing exit quality:
- Top M&A/RX (PJT/CVP/EVR) for reps
- TMT (GS/MS/Q) for interesting deals 
- FSG (MS/JPM) for culture
Would be different if you want to be a career banker but cannot comment on that

 

If you’re aiming to be a career banker, how does that change your decision? How would you rank these options? Would you choose a bulge bracket or an elite boutique? And would you prefer a coverage or product group?

 

GS TMT, and it is not that close to be honest (PJT RSSG and Q are the only ones in the same tier)
