Lazard vs Guggenheim IBD
I have been given offers at both Lazard and Guggenheim IBD NYC SA positions. I am looking for information about the two firms. Comp? I know Guggenheim is more but how much? Culture? Learning experience? Exit Ops? I am not set on going buy-side but it is an option. Also, I would plan to do TMT at Guggenheim but unsure of group at Lazard.
Lazard is better in almost any way, especially in terms of exit ops.
Culture might depend on fit and I can't speak to it much aside from that you'll have to work much more at Lazard

Cl0ckMan you're clearly a high school moron. Don't post unless you know what you're talking about. Gugg is most definitely NOT on deals because of financing. Have you even seen the deals that they are on?
Lazard is better in terms of exit opps to PE and "prestige". Other than that, can you name another difference? Lazard does more deals but with way more people. Also, OP isn't recruiting buy-side recruiting for 3 more years so who knows what will happen
Can't go wrong, just go with your gut.
doing buy-side recruiting*^
u suk
Guggenheim is not even an elite boutique anymore. Not on any major transactions.
Bro, wtf are you talking about? Was Discovery's acquisition of Scripps (a ~$14.6B deal) not a major transaction? Are you salty because you got dinged? Lol
WSO hates Gugg for no reason. There's people on here posting that Gugg has 2000 people in IBD M&A and there's people posting that Lazard is still as bad an environment to work in as the early 2000s. Stop misleading young college kids.
Lazard's improved substantially in terms of its work environment and Guggenheim is an elite boutique
If you really want to go into TMT, I would choose Guggenheim. If you're just going for which bank is higher ranked overall, I would go with Lazard.
However, do read this article on Guggenheim from Bloomberg. Looks, things are getting a little crazy over there...don't know how serious this is but something to think about:
