-
HL M&A/Baird/William Blair (Baird/Blair can be moved higher if CHI focused list)
-
Leerink/MTS Partners (can be moved higher if healthcare focused list)
Honored to be the first one to MS this. Didn’t read, just fuck those rankings
What a joke of a list
Missing Natixis in God Tier
lol, this ranking is actually fine relative to some others...
These posts remind me of greekrank… which then reminds me they are irrelevant
Citi is the Beta of high finance
Personally have seen the other MS & GS groups decline (so many GWI chicks from Duke/BC with no experience + Diversity Hires) so would put those below PJT M&A
what's GWI?
Girls Who Invest - organization that places women into buy-side summer internships
Congrats on PJT M&A!
Not at PJT...but unless your at GS TMT/MS M&A everyone is going PJT nowadays...congrats on the industrials group!
Not a good take... Diversity hires are everywhere nowadays, from BBs (GS as you noted) to EBs (eg LAZ or EVR is FILLED with diversity hires). It's getting ridiculous, especially at the MBA associate level (most analysts just feel bad for these diversity hires bc they are seriously bad at their job. Period.)
True, have seen it across all firms
LOL don't get me started on the MBA associates. I'm an AN2 at an EB, and literally all of our diversity hires are a disaster (except for some vets, but even they can be a hit or miss. At least they have a good attitude).
The typical privileged white/Asian female MBA associates are bad though - So much entitlement because they got through a random hiring process
Just curious. In what ways are they bad at their jobs?
Ranking based on what?
Comp?
Exit ops?
Career growth if you want to stay?
Fees?
Ability of seniors (aka your learning)?
Return offer rates?
Stupid.
OP stated “prestige ranking” which arguably is subjective on individual level and objective with a large sample
Right, so if by definition it’s subjective and based on nothing, what is the point in making a “list” that is in order based on qualitative info?
I don’t care about shitposting, but lists making ANY of the banks here sound “bad” when it’s a front office Wall Street job and the target demographic here is 1st years coming out of college is egregiously toxic
Interns / 1st years: yes, some banks here may pay more or have slightly “better” exits, but the reality is ANYONE is extremely lucky to get a front office job anywhere here and all of these places can be the start of a long successful career
my bank is ranked high so great list!
Congrats on Leerink
Qatalyst and MS Tech are easily T1 lol
Q >>> MS Tech tho
Swap PWP and LAZ. Everyone at Laz gets paid shit and hates their life
Satisfaction with the firm shouldn't be a factor for ranking - If it was then GS TMT/MOE, which are known to be sweaty, should also be ranked lower. Also, PWP has lacked the consistency to be ranked over LAZ
Why would I work at LAZ when I can go to PWP where I get paid more, better culture, and similair exits. Exists are only worse at PWP bc I've never really met any hardo's there. LAZ used to have prestige
Work there, can confirm shit pay and everyone hates their life, would jump to PWP in a heartbeat
Wheres Miller Buckfire RX???
too hard to rank IMO, including Ducera. They might be more relevant for a standalone RX ranking. Prestige-wise (whatever that means), they are a tier below RX groups of PWP, GHL, GUGG or Ducera
Buddy worked there. What he went through I don’t wish upon my worst enemy. Doing well now though.
Thanks for the recognition
Congrats on HL Rx
thanks - almost forgot to read WSO rankings today
How about FT Partners? Base 140K
shit i was looking for the fake prestige rankings thread
Where’s RJ they r number one bank very nice
