Largely group dependent, particularly in the middle market space. Baird industrials and Blair tech can stretch pretty long hours because of their sector strength. Many of the EBs in Chicago as well because of how lean they run.

How’s greenhill? Heard good things about them but it’s hard to believe when the overall firm has been doing so poorly in recent memory lol

 

The Chicago office seems to be one of the largest and the strongest for the firm, both from an experience and exits standpoint. Industrials focused as are most of the Chicago banks, and their website indicates steady deal flow in that sector.

Damn, what are exits like if they’re that much better than the rest of the firm?
