IMO that's the best role. It's not long term but good for learning

I second @baml1. Credit is great to learn, but you'll hit a bit of a wall eventually. CA is a nice way to bridge the gap towards client facing roles. It gets you out of the credit silo and opens up doors to many of the other groups. Also, credit experience is great for a new CA.

Credit is solid to build fundamentals but it can be limiting with regards to client interaction and strategic advisory. The siloed nature makes it that way which is unfortunate if you want a broader view. I think a product group in IB is a better opportunity if you want to build the most skills.

Why would u lose technical side

What is the role within commercial banking? The commercial bank is very siloed, and therefore some roles are much better than others

What's IMO?

@baml2 in my opinion...

Ah, thx

@baml1 thanks! Agreed with you that it is the better role too, as its more involved with the origination side along with all the PB and client interaction. Just bcuz of the way it's structured at BAML with silo groups, the underwriting and technical side remains with credit is what bugs me the most. But I suppose you can always spin it how you want like what you said, it would be a great short term stunt

DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good? A company along those lines.
