Fucking run. 3 am every night on deals that don’t close. Group head supposedly is based out of there, but he hasn’t been seen in office in years.

 

Houlihan is probably the worst career choice you can make right now as a banker. You get Moelis hours and Lincoln prestige. We have a strong culture of termination, people are fired all the time. Our lateral talent pool proves that we are a bank of last resort, we are not taking talent from places like Blair or any BB lately, we are dipping down into the pool of the longterm unemployed and no name bucket banks.

You have to be an asshole to survive here. I would avoid unless you are completely fucking desperate to break into banking.
