Sponsors (think its called FSI now instead of GAAM), M&A, and Power are the best. Power and M&A are sweaty AF

Then Media and IND as next tier (would also group SF Tech here). Would follow that with the rest of Tech, C&R, HC. 

 

Thanks! How do bonuses/exits vary by group, given the 1-4 ranking they give analysts. Also heard that some groups are particularly siloed (eg Tech with Software / Internet / FinTech), so how are bonuses structured in that case?

 

Tier 1A: M&A, GAM, IND, 

Tier 1B: HC, Power, Comms

Tier 2: Tech, FIG, C&R, Financial Strategy (FSG), Infra, 

Some serious sweatiness accusations for all of Tier 1

 

Would consider moving tech to 1B depending on the vertical (for example, software)
