In my opinion, HL reputation is primarily due to its restructuring practice and FAS professionals are treated as second class citizens at the firm. In the old days, FAS used to hire with the promise of an internal transfer to other teams. I dont think that happens any more. Also, the politics at the senior level is fierce (especially in NY since the headquarters is in LA) and the effects trickle down to junior employees.
