WF TMT vs CS MT vs Roth (Generalist)

Opinions on the above for an Investment Banking Summer Associate role?

I’m worried about CS return offer rate with CSFB still in the works. I like WF a lot and they placed well in the US league tables this year - def on the upswing with a great brand and some huge deals. Roth has been consistently good and also has a great brand. I just prefer TMT to generalist overall but getting exposure to restructuring would be neat. Culturally, I think WF is the best but the people at all the banks are pretty nice so it’s not a huge factor. pay is also pretty much the same..

 

Wells is on a huge upswing and is putting heavy investment into TMT. Maybe 1 year ago I would say CS, but the answer is probably Wells now.

 

Still think CS makes the most sense especially in M&T. While not the same class as top tier BB, CS M&T still has a lot of heavy hitters including the head of banking in EMEA. Wells has too many financing relationships tangled so not truly advisor per se

 

Thought the senior bankers from WF TMT all jump ship to Truist. The guy stepping in to lead WF is from CS TMT. I always thought WF is only good in the media side doing a lot of work in the legacy traditional media space. While, the new CS guy is focus on software, which is never WF's focus.

Gudofsky, while he is a great banker and a rainmaker, is not focused on software. His focus is payments and tech services.
