I wouldnt imagine a good “experiance” in any groups the way you spelled it
Worked here before moving to PE recently so I'll give my 2 cents: Not going to break out separately by the attributes you listed but would say this list is weighted towards exits and experience since you won't have good culture or WLB in most of the groups:
1) media, communications, alternative asset management (interesting and somewhat "niche" group that actually has good culture and strong exits which is why I put it towards the top)
2) healthcare, tech, industrials (the big industry groups are "sweaty" but you get good experience and can exit anywhere)
3) transportation and power/renewables (these two groups used to be one but separated. Have heard many horror stories about transpo hours/culture, same with power/renewables - would try and stay away but these guys tend to exit decently as well)
4) All the others - RE, metals and mining, chemicals, etc
