Currently at GS/JP in London. For the longest time thought that top BB exits actually were worse per capita than top EBs in London like PJT / Evercore / Centerview etc.
However, on a quick browse on linkedin, I see fewer than single digit associates in MF PE where their previous firm was an EB.
Could someone more experienced speak to whether this is true? Is boutique prestige really that much stronger in the US vs. London?

All BBs (not just top) have significantly better exits than EBs (except Roths and Laz) which might be on par with tier 2 BBs. HHs reach out less, tougher to get interviews, and your deal experience might put you at disadvantage. I’d go to any BB imo for exits over most EBs.
Former EB Analyst here, exited a while ago. got a shot in all the places that I was interested into, from UMM to Distressed HF to MFPE to MF Special Sits. Once you’re in front of the team nobody gives a fuck of your bank or team.
I knew it was a former EB analyst when I got MS. Didn’t say they don’t exit. Said significantly less and I think that’s a fact.
Wasn’t me Ms you. Also you literally said “HHs reached out less, more difficult to get interviews”. Obv we exit less, across EVR / CTW / PJT / PWP there are 1/10 of the BAML / Citi / GS / MS / JPM / CS
If you’re at GS / Ms and some teams at JPM, there’s a clear difference for PE (more MM than MF), a difference which based on my experience is not there when it comes to T2 BB
that’s all I’m saying
Which teams at JP would you be talking about?
They class is much smaller so its not a fair comparison. If you are at a BB or a top EB you will get looks regardless.
