Lazard TMT is a solid shop overall, and buddies of mine love the culture out here in the Bay; but expect a discounted experience at an outpost in Boston. Exit opps most likely won't be as prevalent as in the Bay. Tech banking in general has worse hours due to current strong deal flow and market conditions and Boston is no exception. I would imagine that all-in comp would be in line with mid-to-top bucket BB. I would also expect reduced client exposure as a junior analyst given geography.

Lazard Boston TMT (IBD) (Originally Posted: 12/25/2012)
Hi all,
I was looking to gain some perspective on the strength and structure of this group and how it fits into Lazard's overall TMT business, with other groups in NYC and SF. What is the quantity and quality of deal flow at this office (e.g., live M&A / restructuring advisory vs. fairness opinions vs. pitches)? How would the experience for an analyst / associate compare to other offices (at Lazard and elsewhere)?
Thanks in advance! Happy Holidays!
Would also be curious.
Thanks man, good info.
Any other opinions? Anyone know about recent exits?
Also, if Boston isn't that great, any ideas about difficulty in moving from Boston office to NY office?
thanks again.
Have heard good things about the office. The MD's are heavy hitters and seem to get a lot of huge clients. I think it's a pretty small office with ~15 or so.
Bump.

Bump. Anyone else?
Very small office, heavy software focus, amazing exits. Expect to work a lot.

It's a great place to start. A friend of mine just moved from an EB TMT at Boston to a top PE at the Bay area, but she also got an associate offer from the EB. Make sure that you are a top performer, and exit opps will take care its own way.

Group has solid placement -- there isn't a clear trend but they have a strong track record of sending analysts to both SF and NYC. I know that one of their second years is heading to Thoma Bravo next year.
One disclaimer - hours at this group are pretty rough. From what I have heard from acquaintances that work in that office, the SF TMT group and the NYC group (rest in peace), they are definitely some of the lengthiest hours of the entire firm. Based on what I have heard from people in the Boston office, its primarily due to keeping a lean team with a lot of business volume and deal flow. Paul Haigney, one of Lazard's vice-chairmans and the head of TMT, historically spent more of his time leading from the SF office but now spends a lot more of his time in the Boston office.
Any updates on exit opps/culture?
Long hours. Few wannabe alpha males juniors.

Any updates on this?
Bump - any update on boston culture/experience for junior staff?
