depends on the country for Rothschild and Lazard: industry groups in the US (but can be multy-industry groups), industry groups in London, multi-industry groups in Frankfort, generalist pool in Paris (with some exceptions such as FIG or TMT at Lazard)
Rothschild is not an EB
to answer OP's question - as an analyst, you'll be either a generalist or in restructuring.
@goblan
Rothschild would definitely be an EB in Europe. In the States, not so much, but still one of the better boutiques
Yeah, I guess, but I think "boutique" is thrown around way too much these days. Qatalyst and Allen & Co. are boutiques, Rothschild and Evercore might be elite, but with offices around the world and tons of employees, they aren't boutiques.
In London, Rothschild is considered an elite boutique In the U.S. think of it as an independent investment bank (Guggenheim would fall under this category as well). That said, its Rx practice even in the U.S. sometimes garners EB status.
