The group has lost seven managing directors and one director so far this year, including the bulk of the West Coast tech mergers-and-acquisitions team.
Wally Cheng, a managing director, Jeremy Hux, a managing director, Christopher Nam, a director, and have left the firm in recent months, according to people familiar with the matter.
That's in addition to the five managing directors who left for Jefferies last week.
Anthony Armstrong, who was a managing director and head of technology in the Americas, left the firm for Morgan Stanley last year, as first reported by The New York Times.
Cheng is joining Morgan Stanley as a managing director and a senior M&A expert in the firm's Menlo office. His expertise is in semiconductors and hardware. He left Credit Suisse in February.
Nam is joining Mizuho as a managing director and head of the internet banking team. He previously was a director on Credit Suisse's internet banking team, and worked closely with Imran Khan, the former head of internet banking who joined Snapchat as chief strategy officer in 2014.
Nam was the lead internet banker on Lyft's $1 billion private placement and on a fundraise for the start-up Handy. Nam also worked on Alibaba's IPO.
Another director, Jon Gegenheimer, is in talks to join Jefferies.
Before leaving Credit Suisse, Jeremy Hux was a managing director and head of clean technology investment banking in San Francisco, according to his LinkedIn profile.
