Guggenheim Groups & Culture
Have heard good things about Guggenheim's Healthcare group. Can someone elaborate on the culture, pay, and overall deal flow? Considering applying to lateral there later in the summer after A2A. Thank you.

Hey Analyst 2 in IB-M&A, I'm the WSO Monkey Bot and I am sad to say, but this thread is lonely, so thought I'd post in here to try and help out. Some potential topics that might help:
More suggestions...
Fingers crossed that one of those helps you.

Split in biotech, services and med tech.
Pay is the same across all group.
Broadly speaking, bio is a lot of cap raises, services is sponsor buy/sell side and med tech is corporate M&A.
Services is definitely the busiest by a good margin. All groups have good exits but probably doesn’t matter to you as an associate.
What about their middle-market/PEAG group?
Mid Markets group crushes it. They have a lot of deal volume and are consistently busy.
Any idea about their originations/structuring group?
Any knowledge about TMT or energy?
No clue on Energy.
TMT is mostly Media and Telecom - won’t get tons of pure play SaaS companies.
This is for menlo park right? Or do they also have NY office
Houston energy group poached a lot of senior guys from Citi, think they have been doing pretty well recently.
I haven't seen them on a lot yet but have heard the same. Obviously poached some talent. Curious if they're trying to expand headcount?
Not to hijack thread but any insight in Industrials (deal flow, culture,)
Industrials is somewhat sweaty (not as bad as Healthcare), but culture is good. All of the ex-military folks end up joining Industrials.
Industrials is pretty sweaty and the largest group now. Definitely the most deal flow and have closed some big ones recently. Culture seems to be one of the “frattier” groups at the bank
Can confirm Industrials is the most popular group at the firm now ahead of TMT and Healthcare because of its collegiate / good culture and most dealflow as user said above. In the past 3 months did Xylem / Evoqua ($7.5B), Blackstone / Emerson Climate Tech ($14B), Ritchie Bros / IAA ($7B). Exits past few years to TPG, Permira, HIG, Providence, Harvest, EagleTree, Arcline, Balyasny HF
Overall Gugg exits have continued to improve (Carlyle, CD&R, Advent in addition to the ones listed above) but Industrials group especially
Sorry to bump this again, but do you know if Industrials would now get the same looks as TMT, HC Services, and Biopharma when it comes to PE recruiting?
If you're in one of those groups, it all comes down to the candidate. Don't overthink it.
RX exits better, worse, or equal to Industrials?
Really strong bdsm group
Any insight on their FIG team?
Curious too
HC Services definitely the sweatiest, but their SMDs will push names through for PE recruiting which definitely helps a lot
Strong TMT practice and recently scaling up digital infra presence. Also just opened a London office too
Healthcare group is top notch
Healthcare services goes to bat hard for PE recruiting. Had several VPs and MDs call me consistently pushing their analysts.
Ignore title, I’m a VP now at a UMM fund.
Anyone know much about their FIG team? Seems like they've mostly been doing securitization/ABS deals
I’m curious as well
Any info on RX?
hoping to hear about this as well
What are PE exits like? Do they usually exit to MF/UMM?
Probably a bit worse than you’d think for gugg
