New Trends
With bulge bracket analyst classes being in the hundreds and boutique classes being in the teens-thirties, there is no doubt that (elite) boutiques are being more selective on talent/fit. In fact, this year I saw a lot of the brightest kids in my class go to Greenhill, Evercore, Lazard etc... instead of places like Citi and DB. Not to mention, the lifestyle is likely to be better and pay tends to be higher at the smaller firms. Finally, the placement for even some of the smaller boutiques has been outrageous. Why would anyone ever go BB? Has there finally been a turning point where an analyst experience with Perella Weinberg is better than Goldman Sachs? Obviously, the choice between the two firms would be much harder than it was a few years ago.
Some people want to work in a particular coverage group or vertical, and to my knowledge those elite boutiques start you off in a generalist program (Greenhill and Evercore, at least. I know Lazard has industry groups). I have a good friend who turned down Evercore London and Evercore NY to do GS TMT SF because he wanted to do tech deals.
I feel it is all case to case at end of the day....everyone is different..no one size fits all in finance
