Heard from a trusted source that base for An1 was 80k but WLB was really good (flexible WFH especially for Assoc and up). Take that with that what you will

Networked with them heavily and considered working there. Culture seemed very good and the people I talked to were big on the fact that they had a life outside of work. They’re a MM firm so your deals are gonna be in the 30-300M EV range. They’re focused on the built environment which is a good industry to be in imo since it’s super fragmented. Have nothing but good things to say about them. Not sure about comp at all but I’d assume it’s a haircut to street pay since the better wlb.

 

Analyst 1 Base is $80k +$40k target bonus, Analyst 2 is $90k base +$50k target bonus. Have heard they always hit target and go a bit above as well, depending on P&L. Have heard great things about WLB and deal flow.

 

Honestly, you are better off in commercial banking or FP&A. 

They are an organization that has an identity crisis - are they an investment bank or a strategy shop? Where do they play?


The folks that work there seem like nice people but there’s a baseline sophistication  level that frankly, that franchise doesn’t have. 

If you have ties to the Carolinas or Denver, it’s a choice. If not, I mean… they are a “cut below” in every way imaginable.

 

Source/care to elaborate a bit? A lot of threads about the firm seem to speak very highly about the deal flow/culture. The only downside I saw was the pay, but given the fewer hours makes sense ig? Also saw some laterals from the firm to MM/EB so can’t imagine it’s that bad?
