Hey,
Is PJC sf for lateral position? or just regular FT?
bump for agc partners
Have heard horror stories. Lots of pitching, BB hours, toxic culture.
Edit: should note that this is for the Boston office. Also, see the Company Database reviews - one of them is pretty hilarious.
yeah that's what i've gathered so far from wso. was wondering if anyone had good things to say about it
I'd go Cowen. AGC if you really want Tech-focus. PJ only if HC.
PJ is a sweatshop and its M&A group isn't what it used to be. HC is still strong, but otherwise, I would choose between the other two, depending in what you want to do/focus on.
^this and what cities are you interviewing at?
I would probably go PJC, but depending on the group and location could also see choosing Cowen. Distant third would be AGC, with the disclaimer that I know next to nothing about their non-Boston offices.
PJC's reputation is really poor from an M&A level. But, I suppose it's prestige is still appealing to some MM groups.
Looking at AGC Partners website, their culture seems awesome.
Besides being a pretty bizarre statement, don't you find it a bit strange that junior professionals aren't profiled on the website (something that is fairly standard with boutique banks)?
Yeah is a bizarre statement and I did find it odd that they didn't have their analyst profile listed. I found it cool that they or their website claims they have a hockey team, "tuckerman outing" etcc
