Jefferies CLT and Guggenheim ATL

Question

Currently at an EB in NYC but I've been thinking about moving back down South for personal reasons. If I understand correctly, Jefferies CLT includes ADG, Consumer, REGAL, TES, and Guggenheim ATL is MM and is focused on business and IT services. I've had the opportunity to speak to a contact at Jefferies who seems like a really chill guy but other than that I don't know much about these two offices. Can anyone on this forum offer some insights to deal flow and culture at these offices?

Yes, like it a lot. Fast growing group, which gives it an entrepreneurial vibe. Comp is the exact same.

Also, the MM group is really not viewed any differently internally than any other group. We do a good amount of cross work with other groups in NYC. It’s not like Lazard / Lazard MM where there’s a distinct bifurcation. It’s truly seen as one platform.

While I mostly agree with the Op’s comments. It’s worth calling out for the prospects that this post is geared towards that Guggenheim MM and the larger platform of Guggenheim coverage operate on 2 distinct recruiting cycles. Guggenheim MM will often recruit 2-3 months earlier than the generalist program and unfortunately once you sign for one you cannot place or lateral to the other. The pay is the same which is great if you live in atl or chiraq where the COL is probably double digits less than that of NYC.

Not the most familiar, but I can offer a bit on what I know. Guggenheim ATL is relatively new and was created after they poached some MDs from STRH. Deal flow is solid, but is almost exclusively in MM.
