Just want to get your opinions on how the 3 compare to each other in Houston. I know Citi is rebuilding their A&D group after most left to join another BB. Both RBC & TPH seem to get good deal flow and I've heard good things about RBC culture but don't have any connections at TPH. Any info will be much appreciated.

Don't know anything about TPH. Citi's all left to DB so they wouldn't be my first choice. RBC's A&D team is RBC Richardson Barr. They do a ton, but I've heard the engineers there handle the modelling. Don't know if that's always the case on the A&D side, but it sounds like you'd do less modelling than in a typical m&a group.
Thanks. Really curious to hear some TPH comments.
Petrie Partners does A&D as well.
Bump - still seeking thoughts on TPH.

Thanks bro...how did you find this valuable information?
What are you looking for someone to tell you exactly? Citi is dog crap. Don't go there. RBC and TPH are solid. TPH is more diverse and has the added research piece that helps add legitimacy when it comes to industry knowledge
This. Now legitimately thank you.
Hours are rough at TPH but reputation is solid.
Thanks, I've read about TPH having some rough hours as well.
No hours are worse than C. Just part of the reason they have lost damn near 40% of their office in 6 months.
Citi's deal flow also wasn't that great...they would take w/e they could get their hands on which turned out to be a bunch of mid-stream deals...those are a PIA and I know alot of ppl were not happy about it over there
Their deal flow was pretty effing good - definitely midstream heavy but a lot of headline M&A. But the hours are abhorrent and the bonuses were a joke (esp in light of how good deal flow was). This was not a shake up, this was 2 MD's, damn near every associate, a few analysts, and a few VP's leaving (all to different places) over the course of a year. And that is not even including the A&D mass exodus.
I'm mainly referring to their A&D team. I knew a few of the people that left and most if not all came from different A&D shops working upstream with E&P companies and were unhappy with Citi's constant midstream deals.
