Centerview, by far, is the best investment bank on Wall Street several reasons:

1. Access / Opportunity to work with the brightest partners and on the largest transactions across multiple industries

2. The best culture - people here are collegial, want to invest in your growth, and are incredible to work with. No bureaucratic nonsense and no "face-time."

3. Pay is far above street (arguably the best)

Take this from someone who has friends across many banks (Goldman, Lazard, Greenhill, Morgan Stanley) - I've had far better experiences.

In fact, I enjoy going to work every Monday!

Not much here - only thing is that it's a three year analyst program so depending on how you look at it, it is positive or negative.

If you want to have a career in investment banking, there's no better place.
