Chill TMT groups London (not UBS)

Based on the most helpful WSO content, if you're looking for a "chill" TMT group in London that is half-decent, you might want to consider the following:

1. Arma Partners: Frequently mentioned in European TMT-related threads, Arma Partners is known for its focus on TMT advisory. While it may not have the same prestige as bulge brackets, it could offer a better work-life balance compared to traditional sweatshops.

2. Nomura TMT London: While there isn't a clear consensus on Nomura's TMT team, it has been discussed in terms of prestige, exit opportunities, and work-life balance. It might be worth exploring further to see if it aligns with your expectations.

3. Boutiques like PJT or Guggenheim: While not specifically London-focused in the context provided, boutiques often have a more specialized approach and could potentially offer a better culture compared to larger banks.

If you're avoiding UBS and looking for a less intense environment, these options might be worth considering. However, keep in mind that "chill" and "TMT" don't always go hand in hand, as TMT groups are often known for their high deal flow and demanding nature.
