seeing that you are a first year analyst, you must hate looking at these

I like the charts from GS. The tasteful thickness of the white lines between the triangles of the pie charts, the pastel colours, etc.

On a side note, the day we changed the template for our "title boxes" from boxes to lines was one of the happiest of my analyst stint

lazard does a pretty nice job

Except Lazard works in Word...

Unless they changed, so does Citi. Does BAML?

BAML is definitely PPT.

Citi doesn't work in Word...I don't think any bank does. Word is only used for CIMs.

False. Lazard works entirely in Word last I heard.

No wonder why they say it's a sweatshop there.

Laz does not use Word for pitchbooks. I heard that the London office might have (and might still do), but US Laz does not and hasn't for a while.

 

The one I made last week about how much more efficient it would be to make personal toilets as office chairs.

Please follow the advice in your signature.

Calm down.

What about my signature..?
[quote=rufiolove]When evaluating whether or not to post something on WSO, I think to myself, "would an idiot post this" and if the answer is yes, I do not post that thing...[/quote]
 

We should have a WSO pitchbook competition and find out. It'll be like the hunger games, but everyone represents their bank/group

 

I agree with Qatalyst, I thought their presentations looked very sharp. Also think Evercore and Moelis are on the high end. I am not a big fan of BAML, HL, CS

My disclaimer would be that I have not seen presentation from every firm obviously so...
