Goldman Sach PWM division VS BoA Corporate Banking

I have an offer from Goldman Sach's PWM division and BoA's Corporate Banking. Any feedback/experience and suggestions with either would be appreciated! 


I like relationship management so interested in both. But intuitively PWM seems to be a better wlb choice and long term career. Also the GS name looks good. But I quite like the BoA's team/people. 

GS pay is slightly higher (about 10%) , would expect similar hours. 

Both are summer positions. GS PWM is a rotational programme (across sales and investment). GS return from last year was around 60%. I am not sure about the BoA return rate from last year, any input would be much appreciated!


Thanks in advance!

 

Congrats on the offers. Sorry if this is a little irrelevant but just wanted to ask is Goldman doing ACs in mutliple rounds this year or if all the ACs have been given out?

 

Both are pretty good offers, congrats! I would personally go with BofA - I feel like corp banking provides you with a more transferable skillset + at the end of the day, you’re still managing relationships if that’s what you like (difference being the clients are large corps and governments instead of HNW individuals). Also BofA is prob one of the best banks for corp banking alongside JPM and Citi.

Disclaimer: Currently an intern in the corp banking division at one of the previously mentioned banks
