Lazard was 25 kids for NY last year
PWP is the smallest by far. 14 analysts NYC, 3 SF. Evercore is roughly same size as MoCo and Lazard.
On the other side, what bank has the largest SA / Analyst class? I know some of the groups at GS or even JPM has like 20+ kids.
BAML's class is ridiculously large. Not sure of the exact # but they take a ton of kids as SAs, probably 20+ for several groups (M&A, Consumer in particular)
GS is close to 100 in all of USA RBC NY has more I believe, but they make their money off volume and require more manpower
From what i know, GS has a lot more than 100 in all of USA. Just the New York office alone has close to 130-140
I don't understand that if you have like 20 - 30 kids per group at some of these banks, how can you stand out at all? I always imagined most groups to be like 10 - 12 kids max.
Evercore has around 30 in M&A and 2 in RX PJT is 11-12 in M&A and less than that in RSSG
HL RX has a class of 8
