EB’s ranked by exits
From my experience, I think the exits from these firms rank as follows:
- Evercore and Lazard have the most widespread and established pipelines to UMM/MF. These firms have both become somewhat institutional, definitely don’t have the same cultural feel as some of the smaller EBs. The tradeoff, however, is stronger exits overall.
- PJT RSSG is in a league of its own compared to other groups on the street. Analysts seem to exclusively exit to MF or distressed PE/HF.
- Moelis / PJT M&A
- Marginally worse exits than above. I think Moelis could arguably be placed in tier 1 but don’t seem to have the same number of people in MF seats.
- PJT M&A similarly has great exits but truthfully haven’t seen many MF placements.
- Younger EBs with weaker exits overall. Not a lot of MF placement and less established pipelines to firms across the street. Maybe it’s because people tend to stay.
No longer in banking so interested to hear from anyone at these firms how their recent analyst classes have fared.
Mizuho is THE exit
You mean Mizuho?
Rothschild, Lazard, PJT, Evercore, Moelis in that order
someone come get their intern
Can confirm - recent Rothschild class had exits to Bank of Israel, IMF, World Bank, and the World Economic Forum
If you are in any of these EB groups you will prob get similar looks. Interview prep and getting good staffings is probably a bigger factor.
I know several guys from HL RX that now work at Elliot and Soros
Thank you incoming analyst, but you must be new to this game if you rank HL RX on par with PJT M&A.
