you should NOT be picking the firm based on hourly pay...

but yes CS LA does pay hourly from what i hear

any of those would be phenominal for PE, if you want to do MBA or Corp Dev i would stay stick to the cookie cutter BB name. GS then MS then CS

but PE would prob be Moelis then CS then MS then GS LA. nice problem your friend seems to be having haha
