Hi, know an associate there, the hours are long and the culture is hard but working there is not that hard culturwise. The exits are excellent and I Lazard is one of the most elite boutiques in Paris right know. The reputation is perfect and the comp is very good, one of the highest in Paris. The VP and all the seniors are top notch.

I know that there is a lot of girls there and know some of them and never heard about stories like that but it can be possible. 

PM me if you want more specific informations.

 

it can be a good path too, it depends because I don't have a lot of information about the team but might have in the future. I let you DM me 

 

Very good boutique in Paris in terms of deal flow, they do a lot of great deals because it's huge and it's very sweaty.  
In my opinion, it's not that prestigious to be fair compared to BB in Paris (only targets etc) and to know many of them they are LOT less smart than top 3 BBs. In terms of exits as well they are still far behind from MS/JPM/GS. In general, people that are working in Lazard/Rothschild are the ones that got rejected from the top 3 BB in Paris. 
If you want to have a long career go to Lazard because they are still very good, if not try top 3 BBs
