Currently at one of the Big 3 Japanese banks (MUFG, Mizuho, SMBC) in debt capital markets and might have an opportunity to join the Capital Markets team at Wells Fargo (all in London). What are the thoughts reputationally on WF vs the Japanese banks in EMEA? Also if anyone has any insight into promotions (ability to go up the ranks faster in WF) and salary what would be super helpful! Wells Fargo Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Inc.

I don’t know anything about London other than they have a nice office and they don’t seem to be in the news. So I suppose that isn’t bad considering all the issues we have in general.

funny

I’ve heard fairly bad feedback about MUFG both in terms of professionalism and pay, but it’s still the less-obscure name of the three. To be fair I’m not sure there’s a clear winner reputationally. Street salary for analysts in London is currently ballpark of £70k (60-75). Hope this helps and good luck!

"You've heard". Here's the truth. This is my third large bank, and it is by FAR the best in terms of management, pay, benefits, and the ability to adopt new tech and processes. I make over $150k and I'm only an IT VP, plus bonus. The people I work with are AWESOME. Like all large companies it has issues, mainly low level high turnover new hires who expect too much for their limited experience. Stay more than two years and find out how great it can be.

PARTNERS: two questions —1. If you see an associate has really low hours for the month, do you imagine them chillen on a beach somewhere or do you consider they probably spent most of their days sitting in front of the computer being “available”? 2. If you send an associate a random e-mail on a weekend like “Can you pull X and send to Y”, would you get annoyed if they responded saying they weren’t by a comp or would you consider it reasonable that they wouldn’t be by a comp on a weekend?

I feel like I spend every week counting down to the weekend which kinda sucks.
