Tittle pretty much summs it up. I see a lot of people specifically mentioning the group when they talk about BBs, but is there such a thing as a top group at evercore? Meaning a group with better exit opps than the rest (such as GS TMT/MS M&A)?

Based on the most helpful WSO content, Evercore is generally recognized for its strong exit opportunities across the board, particularly in M&A. Unlike some bulge brackets (BBs) where specific groups like GS TMT or MS M&A are considered standout for exits, Evercore's smaller class size and focus on M&A advisory provide a more consistent experience for analysts. Analysts at Evercore often exit to top megafunds (e.g., Apollo, KKR, Blackstone) and hedge funds, with some even making rare direct jumps to elite funds like Tiger Cubs.
While there isn't a specific "top group" at Evercore that stands out as much as GS TMT or MS M&A, the firm's overall reputation and technical rigor ensure strong exits across its teams. The generalist model at Evercore can also be a double-edged sword, offering broad exposure but potentially varying workloads. However, the firm's alumni network and MD support for buyside recruiting are significant advantages, ensuring analysts are well-positioned for top exits.

No, even the shittiest EB or however you would call it, Greenhill, exits better than Bofa/Citi top groups. Group doesn’t matter at all for a bank like Evercore that is one of the top of its kind.
edit: please monkey shit the HHs please, if Greenhill having good exits doesn't make sense to you, then think why Moelis has exponentially better exits than WB or Jefferies when all these three firms mostly work on MM sponsor-backed sell-side.
