Not recruiting this year but what evercore groups opened for ft?
I'm stating the obvious here, but if for the PJT RSSG vs Evr Rx, go with PJT (Assuming culture fit). PJT has been PJ-Peeing all over the competition in terms of getting major debtor mandates. Last year's fees and their headlines this year speak for themselves.
Have heard / seen PJT RSSG analyst experience has declined significantly past few years. Talent pool of analyst class is a fraction of what it used to be as they diversified from top targets (and WP/ buyside took their best summer analysts), culture has gotten materially sweatier (analysts monitoring when others get in the office, regular 1-2 AMs, etc.), and “PJT-premium” in on-cycle is non-existent vs other RX shops/ top groups (MS M&A, GS TMT, etc.). Anyone should kill to work there, but the glazing is overdone, esp since it’s been going downhill
What about comparing M&A on both?
PJT M&A is very respectable, but it will always be second fiddle to RSSG in terms of prestige / recognition (just like EVR RX and some of the M&A teams). That being said, if you are accepting an offer for FT and have visibility into which group, certain groups at EVR are not as attractive (best groups are media, tech, healthcare; ones like are consumer and M&M are significantly worse)
Perhaps so, but that’s somewhat something that can be iterated for many of the other top groups and firms. I’m skeptical that it’s enough to make a discernment between PJT and Evr’s RX group in terms of analyst program quality/future opportunities. Though, at the end of the day it’s probably best to pick between which group you fit better with.
The gap in recruiting between PJT RSSG and other top groups is overblown. The prestige for IB has a ceiling, and the ceiling is quite low.
