Career Resources
My two cents: Evercore and PJT are very similar in a lot of respects. Both pay top of the street, great cultures, solid exits. PJT is that cool new shop on the block and brings with it that exclusive feel (purely by function of smaller analyst class) and slightly better work life balance. Evercore is more established and has much stronger deal flow but that obviously results in slightly longer hours (but still better than rest of the street). Overall, don't think you can go wrong with either, I'd pick whichever one I like the people more at.
Thank you.
PM'd you, would love to talk
I'd kill to work at Evercore.
Pay is equal, deal flow is relatively equal (in terms of number of people, Evercore does more deals but is also 5x the headcount), prestige and placement is relatively equal, areas of strength are different and culture is different.
With that said, you should probably pick based on your areas of interest and your fit based on who you've met. Everything else is too similar, so wanting to work with one group or another, a larger or smaller bank, should likely be your main factor.
Thank you.
Deal Flow - EVR Brand - EVR Exit Opps - Push (EVR is better in terms of raw representation at places but pound for pound PJT competes) Pay - Push Culture - Push
Comes down to if you want to be at one of the most established boutiques or somewhere that is new and establishing itself (can look at that as + or -) where you can have more of an impact but still has top placement.
Evercore m&a and PJT rx are equal in exits to reputable shops

I would say PJT because Taubman was very highly regarded at MS and was able to pull many of MS's top bankers to his firm, not to mention Blackstone's former bankers. But for you, as an analyst, the only thing that matters is the exit opps. If you have any analyst friends, the best thing to do is have them ask the head hunters they are working with how PJT is perceived and how PJT analysts do in recruiting.
Dude you have no idea
I would go for PJT, they are a rising firm and pushing a lot to get on top of the league tables. This will reflect on your experience and exit opps
Evercore NY is where The elite of EB comes from
Evercore by a fxking 10,000 miles
Evercore m&a is on par w pht RX
Probably not - based on exits.
Can you please elaborate? Most threads I read are saying Evr m&a has one of the best exit opps on the street
Go with PJT.
