The question of Prestige

I would like to know which desks at BlackRock would you recommend to intern with, assuming that you have the choice. Which one has the most "prestige"?

Any thoughts on the other desks?

How do the various desks at BlackRock fair performancewise to their equivalent at other AM companies? Specific information would be appreciated. I am kind of in a rout right now.

I'm guessing preftige = best exit opps?
