I had quite a few EB interviews recently, and during the mandatory why us section, I would say I love EBs vs BBs due to deal team size, senior banker access blablabla, before mentioning something firm specific.
Recently saw a post saying not to do this. Thoughts?

I would say independent advisory firm instead of EB, just to sound a bit more professional. I don't think it's a big issue though
Received 2 offers from EVR/PJT/CVP/LAZ/MOE, I actively tried to not say "Elite boutique" and dropped the elite part. I did say bulge bracket, and discussed the difference between a boutique and bulge bracket, and why I wanted the boutique experience.
