Based on the most helpful WSO content, Mesirow's Chicago office is often mentioned in the context of its Paper & Packaging vertical, which is generally regarded as solid. However, detailed insights on hours, culture, and exits at the Analyst/Associate level are limited.
If you're looking for more specifics, it might be worth noting that Chicago's finance scene is quite different from NY/SF, and firms like Mesirow may offer a more niche or specialized experience compared to larger banks. For a deeper dive, networking with current or former employees could provide more clarity on the firm's work-life balance, culture, and exit opportunities.
