Those sorts of threads are monkey shit magnets

thank you!
You made an account to just post this troll post? Time for a hobby

PJT M&A, RBC and Greenhill should all be moved down by one level
1) Springfield Power Plant Financial Division
2) Everyone else
you missed quite a few: M. Klein, Liontree, Houlihan RX, Cowen, Raine, WF, Rothschild
you're a 2nd year analyst and you care about ranking threads?
Hope it means sophomore
who cares??? unless you are graduating summa from HYP, most people would be incredibly lucky to land jobs at one of these firms. These types of rankings are almost always created by sophomores who have nothing going on in there lives. More often than not they can't even land offers at JEF, DB, RBC.
