Can Someone Provide an Accurate EB Ranking for Summer 26?
Title says it all. About to start recruiting and want a sense for difficulty of securing an internship, prestige on the street, compensation, WLB, and exit opps. Thanks
You have to give and take with some of the criteria you listed. CVP is best for comp. EVR is best for exits. Sure you can probably blend all of your criteria and make a ranking but depends how much you value wlb vs comp vs exits etc.
That’s what networking is for bud
It comes down to opinion but mine is below (and I'm surewill get MS'd into oblivion). No precise order within categories, though maybe loosely, and may have forgot something)
T1 - elite
T2 - very good
T3 - solid
T4 - still worth taking
Great List really agree with it.
Citi M&A in same group as a bofa coverage or BB dcm/financing is crazy lol. Bring Piper and other MM’s down bring RBC, Roth, and GHL up
“Alan & Co” lol. Their internship program is for clients’ kids who don’t get return offers and leave at 5
Take out the capital markets BB teams. Very hard to exit from those
Move down Wells Fargo, Piper, Blair, and HL non-RX to Tier 4
Move up Rothschild US to T3 but maybe they've declined
Definitely move up Greenhill to T3
Then list is solid
- Not all GS classic IBD are tier 1... TMT & FIG should definitely be there, but I feel the others should be tier 2 (very good).
- Wells, Blair, Piper, HL M&A, UBS are not tier 3, should be tier 4.
- GHL should be tier 3, exits are still top-notch and it still has the legacy brand name (similar to LAZ case in tier 2 as they also mostly rely on their legacy)
- I wouldn't put EVR PCA in tier 2. Not sure if it makes sense to rank them here (or BB ECM for that matter) even though they're doing great
- Rothschild Europe should be tier 1. They are still the top EB there with better overall MF/UMM placement than other EBs. Sure EVR/PJT are catching up in Europe, but Roth still carries the weight there. I feel like their US operations tarnishes their overall global image (which is still very highly respected)
Tier 1 - PJT RSSG, CVP, EVR M&A
Tier 2 - LAZ, MOE, PJT M&A, EVR RX, HL RX
Tier 3 - PWP, GHL, GUGG, ROTH
Tier 4 (not sure if EB, more MM) - JEFF, Blair, Baird, Piper
