Any Thoughts on JPM DI Chicago?

Heyy monkeys, I'm really interested in staying in Chicago after college and want to know more about JPM's Chicago DI group. Any idea about the team? Heard that it is super sweaty but has a good culture. Also heard that there are only 2 MDs. How is the deal flow? How's the exit comparing to other banks in Chicago (BAML, Citi, William Blair...)? Will my exit be limited because of being too industrial-focused compared to other groups such as M&A/LevFin/TMT? Any feedback is appreciated!
