Houlihan Chicago

Hey everyone, I am curious what the Chicago office for HL is like (M&A). Interested to hear about the typical stuff such as culture, hours, comp, etc. I'm considering working there and would like some insight if possible. Thanks!

Known or spoken with quite a few people in the healthcare group from analyst to vp and none of them had stayed very long. They were all pretty candid that the group worked very bad hours. If I remember correctly, there was a comment that the healthcare group was the highest fee per banker group at HL. I thought it was an odd thing to be proud about considering you're just bragging about being understaffed
