Blackstone and Evercore have again ranked very well in another set of investment bank ratings. The folks at Wall Street Oasis collected data from employees of the world’s top investment banks and have been releasing their rankings on various metrics.
Investment bank management rated in four areas
The website found that Blackstone and Evercore ranked at the top of the list for best-paying investment banks, while Evercore won in employee promotions. Wall Street Oasis’ latest list is about management at the major investment banks.
