How many DLJ summer interns do you think even interviewed at JPM, let alone took a job there? Please, "I'm very bullish on WDR, but took an offer at JPM"???
I'm sure that you met great people at both places, but don't be fooled by the nostalgic post-internship guy. No firm has as much momentum, especially in Europe and in M&A, as DLJ. If you think you can handle the workload, go with the better shop. Hope to see you there.

Come on now?
DLJ verus WDR????? What kind of comparison is that? I don't know why you are asking which you should choose? Are you smoking crack?
DLJ destroys WDR in almost every catagory! We're #1 in High yield, #5 in M&A completed deals to date; #4 in IPOs, # 5 in converts. And this is for international deals plus domestic. If WDR is so strong globally, how come they can't touch us in any of these products? If you were to take into account only domestic, we would be even stronger. Fact is, you can't be a real global player if you are not strong in the US. You will never show up on the tables. And DLJ is very strong in Europe. We have completed some of the most significant deals this year, including the largest hotile take over ever done in Europe. We are expanding into Europe faster than any other bank and we are stealing more market share in Europe than WDR is stealing market share in NY.
In the end DLJ is a top flight bank with better people. In the end, thats what wins business.
DLJ offers simply the best analyst experience on Wall Street. If you don't want an intense experience then you shouldn't even look at investment banking period. Be a tech consultant or something. DLJ rewards its employees not only with bigger bonuses but with greater job responsibility, more interesting deals and the utmost professional respect.
Nobody has exploded onto to Wall Street the past decade as formidably and quickly as DLJ. We move up the league tables every quarter.
