Greenhill. I believe exits are better, but dont quote me
What group at HL?
Would advise against greenhill post mizuho
seems to be one of the top groups (healthcare, biz serv, consumer, etc)
congrats on biz serv, focus on culture fit then imo
which office and group for hl?
NY office for both, generalist for Ghill, top group for HL
which group
u got HL rx we know it bro no need to hide it. just take that over greenhill any day.
HL RX SA class filled many weeks ago...
yeah this guy is fucking stupid it’s kind of weird
Honestly, both are solid. HL top group will likely look great on your CV and give you exposure to marquee deals. Greenhill generalist could be more hands-on across different industries, which can be a better learning experience early on. It comes down to whether you care more about brand vs breadth.
thanks for the help! curious how much of the brand has retained post merger? seems like they’re close to fully integrated
I would take Hl. Look at return offer rates if you are that torn. Congrats!
Unless HL RX NYC, then go Greenhill all day. Better exits, culture, lifestyle, RO rate. No brainer.
totally agree- my worry is how much all of that remains true now given they’ve integrated more with mizuho and how consistent that will be a year and half from now
HL exits are pretty average regardless, and from friends who interned there (HC, Biz S, FSG) last summer it's an absolute sweatshop. GHL MD's actively help you exit and you are respected as a human being.
If HL RX, its not even a debate. If its M&A I would take Greenhill marginally because of legacy name and exits
thanks for the help! do you think the legacy name stands given ghill now cross staffs with mizuho?
Congrats on Mizuho!
Greenhill all day for coverage/M&A
