Well-Written Book About a Truly Dysfunctional Place
|
| Well written history of the investment bank, focusing, not surprisingly given Lazard's reputation, on a "great man" analysis of the historical leaders of the firm (e.g., Michael David-Weill, Felix Rohatyn). Safe to say, though, that I think the reaction of most readers ultimately would be "why would I ever want to work there?" after concluding the book. This tale of byzantine intrigue, turf wars, and the juvenile treatment of women ultimately reminded me more of an all-boys grammar school playground than a source of brilliant financial advice (which Lazard has always been known for). |
