HL RX vs EVR RX vs PJT RSSG for Post-MBA

Hi Everyone,

I have seen a lot of threads on the above companies out of undergrad. Would like to know if anyone has insights on the recruiting process and experience at these three companies, post-MBA?

What type of previous experience do these companies look for when hiring from business schools?

Which company would be the best to aim for post-MBA in terms of culture and pay specifically?

I worked at one of these my sophomore year (I think you can guess which one offers a sophomore program). Hours were somewhat brutal but that’s probably down to covering an industry that is getting absolutely crushed right now and has ample restructuring mandates to compete for. I would go with PJT RSSG because you will get exposure of more than just RX, which you will not at EVR RX/HL RX. My roommate over that summer was at PJT and the things he/his friends were staffed on ranged from tradition debtor RXs to advising a family run company on how to kick out a legacy investor/family through forming some type of a NewCo. Very interesting work, smart people, and incredible pay.

 

Most associates were in the office M-F until 11pm minimum, analysts usually left a good bit after them. One particular week for us was brutal - my team up to the VP level were in the office until midnight for 4 nights in a row and all came in over the weekend.
