Regarding the firm it will not be possible to make comments, I have heard about Amazon and Delloite as they come to colleges for campus placements. The choice would depend on where you wish to see yourself a few years later, your area of confidence, the pay and perk they offer and the working environment offered.

Hi Anil,
A wealth manager is not an investment banker. Wealth management can be a division within an investment bank. But apart from some information/sales synergies, the two have little to do with one another.
Investment banking is classically the sum of:
1. Mergers and Acquisitions
2. Equity Underwriting
3. Debt Underwriting
