GS (if you think you might remotely leave finance) otherwise EVR b/c they’re stronger than PJT in M&A.
right answer. but if you care about wlb, you're gonna prob get absolutely grinded at either gs/evr, culture at pjt could be a tiny bit better from what I've heard
If you’re interested at all in going back to Asia, GS should be a no brainer
This too. EBs have no brand recognition in Asia. GS is king
Spoke to a guy in EVR M&A, asked him why Evercore, he told me "ima be honest, if GS gave me an offer I would've have taken it". He went to an EVR super target as well (Wharton/Ivey/Cornell/UVA).
GS NO MATTER WHAT
The answer is always Goldman when starting out your career. Brands take decades to build.
Evercore if you plan on staying in finance in the US. Analyst class will have far more hardos than GS and exits are the strongest on the street.
