Tier Olympus: Jefferies
Tier PWC/Deloitte - PJT, EVR, HL, PWP, GUGG, MOE
where's RBC?
Right in between Barc and FT partner
congrats on PJT
JEF catching strays as usual on this forum
.
Why is there a new RX tiers post like this every week. Try to get all those offers and then decide the best one culture and deal experience wise.
RX people don’t touch grass that’s why
The next five years are going to be the golden age of restructuring - take any of these firms.
Why do you say this? In what sectors do you believe we’ll see the most RX activity?
bump
Congrats on commercial banking
There is a serious difference between a good analyst program and a good platform
Can you please elaborate?
Here we go again…
1a. PJT
1b. Evercore
2. HL
3. PWP, Gugg (anyone who worked in RX knows this)
4. CVP, Moelis, LAZ
agree with all besides moelis, unless derrough is leading an exodus out of there
Do you think he'll have the pull to get people to leave? Met the guy and clearly very capable. Just not sure Moelis bankers would want to leave for Jeff.
On the list: Moe and Laz exits ~= HL, better than PWP Gugg. Congrats on one of those.
Touch grass dude.
Also move Gugg down and Moelis up and you’re good
