Rothschild Chicago
Anybody have any information on this office? I know it's relatively new. From what I could find, it is where the head of paper and packaging sits. It also has a C&R team, but I don't think they cover a lot of verticals out of Chicago.
How is the culture here? What other groups do they have? Comp?

Hemorrhaging analysts. Take that for what you will…
I've heard the same.
What does this mean
Much smaller office than NYC I think sector agnostic - analysts look like a bunch of guys that piqued in high school and were on the lacrosse team

Actually spoke with a few folks in the office. Honestly seemed like great people. Smaller office (20-25 bankers, unless that’s changed). Industrials, c&r, and paper & packaging, focus
Curious to hear more about the analyst hemorrhaging cited above
I don’t want to expose myself given the small nature of office but have a good connection there. I think they lost like ~3-4 out of 8 analysts. It’s a really tough place to work, and is probably a tier below the rest of the top industrials groups in Chicago. I’m Chicago banker doing industrials, so I’ve heard from friends that they’re hiring. That being said, given everything going on, you need to ask yourself, why would a group be hiring now. There are two logical answers: 1) growing and need to support more deal flow or 2) people are leaving. This is definitely case of 2), so if you are interested, you need to really ask yourself if you want to sweat your ass off at a group that people have decided to jump ship from, even in todays market. Personally, based on what I’ve heard, I wouldn’t touch it. That being said, if you’re desperate, you’re desperate lol.
Can you PM me? Interested in learning more.
What is bofa's industrial reputation in Chi
Have had a few conversations with some folks in Chicago office - all seem nice and down to earth. I would say (based off my perception) it appears that they are growing and need junior support. From my understanding they are actively executing on sizable mandates, they have a strong pipeline, and are anticipating things to pick up pretty quickly in the second half of the year. That being said, they are certainly a smaller office that has leaner deal teams so I can imagine juniors getting absolutely crushed which may have pushed a few out. It does seem as though they are trying to mitigate deal teams being spread too thin and that they very focused on finding the right fit for the people they choose to bring on

Guy I met was really nice as well. Said he was grinding but who isn’t? Did seem like an intense group at the least. But if it’s a group of kids like him it would certainly be a top 10% place to work in this industry
Rothschild NY culture >>>> Roth Chicago culture
Very fratty and a lot of ppl from Big 10 nearby. So if you aren’t from Midwest it will be a big disconnection to the rest of juniors and some seniors.
Anyone else in the process? PM me if so; looking for insight into whether it’s moving on without me or not lol.
Bump - thought I would hear something about their process by this week, but nothing. Anyone hear about next rounds?
Is this for a lateral opportunity or Summer start date?
anyone know where these guys are in the process? I hear they are hiring...
How bad is the Chicago office? The head of the Chicago office is now head of the Miami office too
The place is a sweatshop. I’ve heard horror stories from people who have worked there and left where associates would hold on to comments to drop on analyst desk at 11pm as a hazing activity.
If it’s your only option, sure. Otherwise keep looking as you’re going to burn out.
