Guggenheim Securities Reputation?

Guggenheim Securities has a full-time job posting for their investment banking division coming up at my school. What is their reputation on the street? How do these guys rank against the elite boutiques? Do they have good exit ops? I know they've worked on some big deals, and their chair is Alan Schwartz, but haven't really heard much else... Any thoughts? Thanks.

It's really hard to say. They have very good potential and I know that they're pretty selective, but since they JUST started out it is difficult to hypothesize about the reputation they'll have and the available exit opportunities after two years. If you have an offer, there is no reason to be shy about taking it (although I would take a BB/elite boutique over them) given my risk aversion.

 

Wouldn't be so quick to laugh there fembot. Firm's been around only for 9 months but already doing some very large deals.

 

Similique perspiciatis qui ut eaque quas. Maiores qui tempore officia quae expedita.

Nemo fugiat velit eos officiis et quidem. Ullam sed quibusdam ex ducimus officiis et et numquam. Voluptatum quasi sapiente eligendi esse et et eos.

Tempora ut autem quis est. Soluta aut sequi laborum qui minus dolorem. Sapiente odit nesciunt consequatur impedit exercitationem. Voluptatem nemo optio sunt quia excepturi quaerat ex.

Laboriosam illo nemo illo. Non veniam blanditiis aut et incidunt.
