PJT Strategic Advisory Boston Rep? or regional office EB experience?

Hi, just got invited to first round interview for PJT Strategic Advisory in Boston. Does anybody know their reputation? Looked around WSO and the reaction seems to be pretty trashy which surprised me, but figured things might've changed since that one comment in 2020 called PJT Boston weak deal flow. How are the exit opps, deal flow, and culture? Would love any insight!

Am also curious about the experience interning at EB's outside of NYC in their regional offices. Have read that it does hurt networking at exit opps. Is this true?

Hey, it seems from your language and all your "bumps" that you're basing your entire conception of this group off of old WSO posts, probably written by college freshmen. Please don't revert straight to WSO to find out the "prestige" or "exit opps" of any group, it's just an unproductive way of learning about a firm and will give you superficial, outdated perspectives at best.

You have an interview, right? Well take advantage of the last 10 mins of that interview to ask questions about the group, maybe hear directly from the people who work there instead of random people on WSO who will be guessing at best. Or if you progress far enough in the process, find people on LinkedIn who used to work there and reach out to hear their perspectives. There are tons of reliable outlets out there to learn about things like this, but WSO isn't one of them.
