bro, I highly doubt your mean exit will be better at other firms. Now I don't wanna get into the silly topic of picking bank x over bank y, but that's something to consider when people are literally splitting hairs between firms that are more or less the same 

 

Any other non-PJT RSSG/CVP/EVR EB has identical exits. Once you are an analyst at any of these firms, it will depend on different factors (UG, deal experience, interview execution etc.) whether you get that UMM/MF PE offer

 

Honestly, how are these exits, on average, different from other places that are top of the top (excl. some top-notch exclusive MF/HF exits)?

I feel like people often overhype the prospects of exiting well from certain top group when in reality most decent BB/EB will get you to the same places

 

I think it depends. If you're gunning for tiger cub HF or top groups at MF, then going to a GS TMT/EVR M&A/CVP vs GHL/MOE/BofA/Citi might make a difference. For most buyside opportunities, however, the difference won't be that important and it will also depend on your background, experience etc.
