Nervous at boutique?

I work at a prestigious boutique (think lazard, greenhill, evercore). although people say that i am set and should not be worried about my job, given the current market conditions. however, i wanted to hear what you guys thought about this subject and what i should be nervous about. thanks a lot.

The only thing to worry about at a boutique is just the slowing of M&A activity. It's slow across the board though. Given that the boutiques have no exposure to toxic assets and have done well this past year, Evercore and Greenhill are actually EXPANDING their analyst classes. Both are also continuing to hire new MDs.
