Exits: MOE/LAZ/PJT > PWP
Comp: PJT/MOE/PWP > LAZ
Overall I would say that MOE and PJT are slightly better than the other two (taking into account overall perception, growth, desirability, etc.), but the difference is so small that it really becomes meaningless (sort of like comparing GS to MS)
IMO these are all comparable names more or less. Some hardos might prefer Moelis over the others while people who want a more chill environment will opt for PWP for example
Any EB will get you great looks for PE/buyside shops (with obvious outlier groups like PJT RSSG/EVR RX). At a super high level though: Don't go to Moelis if you want to have a life (but you will have stellar exits and get lots of reps in)... EVR RX/M&A obviously stellar all around with top pay... PWP top culture/pay with great exits... PJT M&A is a tier below RSSG but still great exits albeit a sweatshop... LAZ is honestly just questionable now with departures and downtrend in performance... GHL will likely continue going downhill
for rx?
pjt obv bruh
PJT RSSG (consensus no. 1 rx group) > MOE RX (great traction and impressive mandates) > LAZ RX (lost too many seniors) > PWP RX (too small IMO and dealflow is fluctuating AFAIK)
What are you talking about?
PWP beat HL this year for Creditor advisory mandates +a couple big time debtor side mandates. PIMCO literally switched advisors from Evercore to PWP for iheart…
its more like PJT>PWP/Moelis>> Lazard. We pitched against Lazard (I’m at another EB) and they won the advisory by slashing their fees. Not the best look.
Very minimal difference between Moe/Laz/PJT M&A. PWP is slightly worse.
curious to know why PWP is considered worse (not working there)? Saw them on some pretty big deals this year and their average deal size is probably higher than Moelis or Lazard
Exits. Pick any 5 MFs and search up their aso's backgrounds. Will be hard to find PWP
How does average deal size matter? Perella has higher average deal size than for eg Moelis yet at my target people would take Moelis 9/10. Perella simply hasn't been consistent enough to really be placed with the other top EBs (CVP, EVR, MOE, and PJT).
If you like dating your analysts, go Lazard, otherwise any is good.
