What was this post trying to accomplish? What does “prestige data” even mean? And if you’re ranking by “exit opps,” why is GS SSG (which is the exit opp) in a tier with IB players? And why are PJT, EVR, and HL RX just scattered around on this list when they’re probably the most similar in terms of exit opportunities and analyst experience?
