Why do people jump from one ibd to another? I wouldn't jump from one bb to another. Maybe to a boutique. But the payoff is so limited (more comp at the cost of proving yourself again)

Depends on what you are looking to do. At prior firm I was in industry coverage at a full service bank. I moved to a boutique to focus on sell-side m&a in the same industry. Love my boss and have a clear path to director, boss has already told me he is holding the VP position for me and I'm an Associate 2 now. Yes I had to re-prove myself, but I ultimately set myself up to succeed here and felt like I would have been less successful as a senior banker at my prior firm simply due to the coverage style. Wasn't for me and didn't have an MD that I both wanted to work for and had open positions for me to fill at the vp/director level.
