Career Resources
Depends on your interest. Assuming you would be in a good team at Citi, Citi may be better for M&A. But if you are keen on Restructuring PJT all the way. PJT’s culture is nice although hours are long as you might expect at a boutique. PJT also tops the pay in London with CVP. Exits: you should be fine with both, although PJT had some stellar exits, especially on the SS/Distressed side of things
Did you do Citi ACs this year or get the internship through spring weeks?
Take PJT, it's not even close. The Citi analyst class size is 70-80 people, the PJT one is less than 10. This means you are always working independently and you are a genuine valued asset and a member of the team. You get to cut your teeth and large M&A transactions and high-profile Restructuring deals at the same time, which allows you to recruit for PE funds and distressed funds simultaneously. Above everything, you get to be in Mayfair instead of Canary Wharf - which means Soho is within your Deliveroo radius. Your training is in New York.
Your pay is higher too, though PJT recently cut pay this year by quite a lot. PWP actually pays the most right now.
Out of interest can you disclose by how much % pay was cut? Heard in the past bonuses was almost 100% so wondering how drastic the difference is now.
Nope. Not going to disclose that.
But I'd say the single most important thing is to join the firm with the people you like. You are going to work way too long to be in a place with people you do not like.
