Lots of back and forth about this bank, everyone knows RSSG is at the top of the street with exits to anything (including straight to Tiger Cubs), but what about M&A?
How are exits, I know deal flow has not been the greatest...

Great pay, great exits, fewer deals than elsewhere obviously but still somewhat interesting. It's an EB and one of the newer ones, so it's obviously not going to have GS-type dealflow, but in my opinion as long as you get paid top of the street and have the possibility to exit virtually anywhere, you should be good. PJT is a very prestigious brand in finance, despite what incoming interns would want you to believe.
I don't think basing your sole judgement on "number of m&a deals closed since date x" is a viable way to choose whether or not you would want to join the structure.
Those categorically saying that pjt m&a sucks are the same who keep yapping about pwp supposedly being "glorified mm" : salty and most likely rotting in some obscure alabama coverage team at jefferies/lincoln
pjt m&a is a good place. yes deal flow might not be as strong, but it’s still a bank that ppl respect, it's in line with moe/laz. tbh all the ebs are great, idk why ppl on here always split hairs over them. yea evr/cvp/q tend to have stronger deal flow, but any eb is a great oppurtnity and it will open a ton of doors.
id just think of it like once you’re at any legit eb (pjt, moe, laz, evr, cvp, q, even pwp), you’ve already cleared one of the hardest barriers of getting a spot there. at that point, marginal diffs only rlly matter for top pe exits or whatever else you’re optimizing for.
