Hey guys,
Wondering if boutiques like Gleacher, Greenhill, Centerview (these specifically) are that good. Do they actually place that well and will you be able to see some good deals and get good experience? What is the lifestyle like? If you had offers for one of these boutiques, would you take it over a BB like Citi, UBS or DB? Thanks for the help.

holy fucking shit fuck
I like your style
Do you think Citi and DB are lower tier banks or something?
Take Centerview over UBS. Trust me, its a good decision.
Don't be stupid, of course take UBS or DB or Citi over a boutique... ANYDAY
^^ ModusOperandi: You would take Greenhill over UBS or Citi anyday?
Where did you read this? I wrote the first line sarcastically, and then realized people would not get the sarcasm. so i wrote dont be stupid, of course you would take ubs over a boutique anyday
gleacher sucks. other two are solid though
Please don't ever manage my money if you can't do a simple search
Do you actually have offers from these places?
Regardless, you will get to work on mega deals and have great exit opps at all these places. It totally depends on what type of experience you want. You will get to see more execution and have more interaction w/ senior people at the boutiques, but you will get a more extensive training program and network at the BBs. Like I said, depends what you're looking to get out of your analyst years.
As for good deals:

I'd say they're doing pretty damn good...
Centerview (highest pay on the street, very well respected, huge ass deals) > Citi > DB > UBS > Greenhill >> Gleacher
IMO
You would take UBS over anything?
Here's your order
Centerview > Greenhill > Citi > DB > UBS > Gleacher
Agree
isn't centerview pretty new? I'd put Greenhill first and centerview second. Agree with the rest
No freaking way Greenhill is better than Centerview...
IMO, Centerview > Goldman > Greenhill
Ello clearly works at Centerview.
Centerview is an amazing firm with probably the best per-capita dealflow of any investment bank out there, but it's not that well known so it probably won't get as much headhunter attention as GS, so you'll have a more difficult time placing into the top shops from what I've heard. If you plan to stay in banking it's top notch though, and it's one of only 2-3 places where I could see myself staying rather than jumping to PE (the other 2 are probably Allen & Co. and Greenhill)
