Anyone in the group know what happened?? Heard from a friend at the firm that a new Associate in the group emptied a bowl of hot ramen on an MDs head after being screamed at

uhhhh following....
LMAO is this for real?
Can confirm. This MD was just promoted a month ago and has been an asshole to juniors. He screamed at this Associate in front of the entire floor earlier for not progressing a pitch book enough…Well deserved imo
Hot bowl of ramen still seems a bit excessive eh
Update: MDs profile has been removed from the PJT website and is under investigation.
is it NYC or London?
damn what a way to go out. all that sweat blood and tears to make MD and then instantly let go a few months later lol...
Based on the information you gave in your two comments I think I found who the MD is after 15 minutes of searching. Another reason to live an ethical life because if you don’t people will find out even if your name isn’t out there…
I want to believe.
LOL is if he committed this act on your behalf for the many who have abused us all
insane but also based asl
Cap
Ramen is crazy 😭😭
Was it spicy ramen?
Tonkotsu perhaps?
Which office was it? No way it's true lol
if there is a donation link, i will donate to this associate.
I’d consider hiring him, probably in a remote role though haha
bump
no way lmfao
Respect for standing up for himself / the boys, especially for getting yelled at for not progressing a pitch enough…
However, this almost certainly ends poorly for the associate, even if it wasn’t unprompted and the MD yelled. PJT will protect the MD over some new associate and he literally assaulted him pouring hot ramen on his head.
Surprised by turn of events - MD is being investigated and not the associate, damn.
Bold of you to assume “he” was “standing up for the boys”
Wym - this nitpicking me assuming it was a male associate 😂
It ends poorly for both of them.
Is this London?
WSO is so good lately.
That being said, this came up as a behavioral during my interviews recently and you are not meant to pour boiling ramen over the head of your seniors.
Wait. Which office? London?
Think you need to edit the title - "Legendary Associate PJT Industrials"
The amount of cap is too damn high... (feel like this would be in the news somewhere if in the UK and legit)
Why would the news bother with an inter-office conflict? I've seen plenty of insane shit in my professional life. No one bothered to call a reporter...
the public doesnt give shit about office drama nor should they.
If this was London then was it Industrials or O&G / Energy?
Seems to be rule that all Power/Energy MDs in London have to be insane
former infra banker here - can confirm one of my 3 MDs was an absolute clown. even the other 2 MDs didn't like them. Other 2 were absolute chads - so mixed bag.
Can confirm this associate appears to have both Power and Energy
Bump folllowing.
WSO users are such NPCs man this is obviously fake. The users claiming this (and OP) have the same wso ranking so OP has obviously just changed job titles to larp
Can confirm the ramen situation is blatantly false (source: I work here). It’s unfortunate that false rumours on forums like can spread so quickly and negatively affect people’s careers when there is no credibility to such a post. WSO, Litquidity, and fellow finance accounts - you all have such a massive reach, so please do better.
Paul Taubman we know its you buddy
PJT is a fucking joke - been saying this for a while. Great results but a complete circus inside those four walls.
Meanwhile you fell for an obvious troll post

?
Would pouring ramen if it’s hot be considered assault?
100%
Not if and is bald
Not if MD is bald
a16z will hire him now
