Restructuring: EY-P vs. Ankura vs. Riveron

I’m currently in audit looking to escape to restructuring consulting before busy season. I see postings for these three most often in my city - which is the best in terms of exits, wlb, prestige, comp, etc?

Worry about getting the interviews and the job before nitpicking firms. Going straight from audit to restructuring is a tough move.

Yeah seems like it… Have heard they sometimes take auditors though. What kinds of backgrounds are most common?

EYP. It isn’t close.

Just for the brand name? They don’t seem as competitive on League tables

I’m in rx and I’d say Ankura or Riveron but only to get enough experience to go to A&M (or Alix, I guess)

If pure restructuring, would say ankura out of the three.

Ankura’s restructuring is strong in the US.

Obviously biased but I too also think EYP is an absolute no brainer

What about FTI? When I worked there they had a huge practice. 100+ people in New York alone.

FTI also punches way above its weight in RX

Thoughts on Ankura both for restructuring and generally?

Why don’t you network and get interviews at all 3 and then take it from there? Got a big jump to make first. Second the comment about nitpicking right now

Its 100% doable. Worked with plenty of ex-Audit guys

Don’t go to riveron. Portco that’s probably about to undergo a transaction.

Hey fishes, can someone tell me how the 80c bracket works, i know i can get exempt upto 1.5lakh under it, what i wanna know is does PF comes under it or not? For example if my yearly pf deduction is 20k and VPF is 10k so now will i still be able to show investment of 1.5lakh under 80c apart from PF and VPF or i'll be able to get exemption on only 1.2 lakh( 1.5lakh-30k= 1.2lakh)?

Thank you in advance!!

Hi fishes,

This annual appraisal I have got a good % of appraisal increment on my salary but I was not promoted to a senior developer (although I have been mentoring a junior dev in my team and been part of building the project by implementing new technologies and tweaks) and my total YoE is 3.5+ years. What could be the reasons? What should I do now?

Thanks in advance!!
