Exit Ops: Morgan Stanley ER vs Sanford C. Bernstein ER

Looking for opinions on the exit opportunities available to associates at both these shops. My thinking is that Bernstein has better exits to AM/HFs. Would Morgan Stanley give you a better shot at a PE exit? (I understand a ER -> PE move is rare in general)
