Rothschild vs. Greenhill vs. Centerview Partners

Have been looking into Rothschild & Co.'s Restructuring and Debt Advisory Group vs. Greenhill's M&A Group vs. Centerview's Advisory Group. Rothschild definitely has reputable European IB presence, Greenhill has brought in great deal flow over the past couple of years, and of course Centerview as a top-notch Advisory firm. Would love to hear input regarding the rankings and rationale for those respective rankings behind each bank. Cheers.

All great places to be, would rank them something like this...

  1. Centerview (Keep in mind it is a 3yr commitment and a bit of a unique shop, seems more oriented towards creating longer term bankers than exits)

  2. Rothschild

  3. Greenhill (falling quite a bit from what I hear, some argue it’s losing its EB status, still a strong shop just not necessarily on par with the EBs)

 

Bro you go to a non target that doesn't place into any of these not sure why you're even asking

"Truth is like poetry. And most people fucking hate poetry."
 

I assume you are looking at London offices?

RTH is strong (best IB office in London btw, with art and paintings rotating), but the culture kinda sucks.

I know little about Centerview, but name not as strong as RTH and GHL in London.

GHL London is small but very strong in London: culture is very relaxed but super long hours (100+ if you wanna be top bucket)
