Between Moelis and Greenhill, which Associate role would you take? London based, not focused on exit opportunities, but rather reputation, dealflow, growth etc. Would appreciate your rationale for your choice as well. Thanks.

Greenhill is more established in terms of their operations out in London. Moelis growing quite rapidly but still in the build up phase etc. In terms of dealflow they are probably similar, imagine they work a lot with their US offices as they are not always on the larger/more visible transactions out here, still on many fairness opinions at least MoCo I think (though I just may have not come across them a lot so that statement might not be accurate). Lots of very strong senior bankers at Greenhill, most prominent example Luca Ferrari who joined not too long ago, that should ofcourse help. Pay at Greenhill has been quite good in the past so thats another consideration, and location right at Berkley Square is also quite nice.
Pretty similar overall I think though I would probably go with Greenhill but tough choice to be honest
Agreed, think GHL would be the better pick. Congrats on the offers though! Both phenomenal shops.
GHL
Thanks. Any other views?
Moelis is supposed to be tough.
Greenhill - know a couple of people there and def a better stint than Moelis (which btw has had a revolving door as far as seniors are considered)
Sorry to go off topic, is it a lateral hire or via MBA? I'd go with GHL anyway, stronger name here in Europe and higher deal flow accounding to any ranking available.
Greenhill without question.
Greenhill seems to be the consensus play then. What about vs Evercore which is obviously sector specific, so different in type of role.
Evercore is somewhat behind the curve - especially when compared to Greenhill.
80% of revenues comes from US which should say a lot about where most deals are coming from.
Spoken like a true banker (albeit one who always tries to spin any no into positive territory).
You are probably happy executing 1 deal a year (that too a crappy little sell side) but that is not what is going to get you places..
Greenhill by far. Great culture and decent lifestyle.
that evercore is behind the curve is just plain wrong - take a look at growth in europe on absolute terms.. take a look at growth in the us etc. your number is completely meaningless. in LDN its EVR Moelis unless we talk restructuring
You sure you did not forget to press the SHIFT button?
yeah - flip that
Haha - let me ask you a question - how many people do you in reality know who work at both Evercore and Greenhill in London?
I know a fair number of people at both the firms so forgive me if I think you are completely misinformed to say the least....
Here is a hint - Check how many offices in Europe Evercore has vs. Greenhill and then do a tally of deals Evercore gets out of Europe
Here is a hint: the numbers are disclosed in the AR so why dont you do your math? Certify your account and we can speak but otherwise this is done for me. ok? thanks

take the european percentage for both --> compare take the percentage as and calculate absolute --> compare divide Greenhill Europe by number of offices and leave Evercore as it is --> compare
lol, I need not defend my position given I have no vested interested in either of the firms mentioned.
Having said that I do know a lot of people at both the firms and I think they'd whole heartedly agree with me...
