GS, MS, C, BAML. Exits similar to normal M&A/coverage, although understandably self-selects more into LatAm and Infra-focused funds.
what about JPM?
Strong for financing, less so for pure M&A I believe – someone correct me if I'm wrong
is GS considered strong for LATAM? When I went through recruiting the general consensus was that they weren’t?

Seem to be doing fine based off of league tables, p. 28
What about Citi? I heard they have solid deal-flow
Citi is great, undoubtedly Tier 1 in LatAm. Strong across M&A, ECM, and DCM.
Terrible culture however. Stay away if you can.
Really? Where did you get this from?
Can confirm terrible terrible culture, definitely up there for worst on the street.
As in Citi LaTam for one of the worst cultures on the street? I would appreciate any insight as I am in the recruitment process
Can you elaborate? I'm considering Citi for an MBA Summer Associate stint...
I'll bite. Know some people in the group and some that have left, including to "worse" opps just to leave behind the culture. Apparently the guy that runs it (or maybe some MD / staffer, can't recall) is some bald ex-military dude that scares the shit out of everyone, permeating a toxic culture from the top down. Juniors are chained to their desks (again, scared of their superiors) and from what I've heard it's not uncommon to get yelled at for some BS reason. All-nighters are frequent, probably the worst hours at Citi (worse than M&A).
However, they said the most depressing part is sharing a floor with Industrials. They have amazing culture, reminding you ever day IB doesn't have to be that way. But for you, it is.
According to the league tables posted above, it seems to be BAML, GS, MS, Citi, Lazard and UBS
Have a friend working at BAML LATAM M&A and it's the best or among the best (biased source)
