Best exit opps in LA? (2011)

Which firms have had the best exit opportunities (and tend to get more attention from head hunters) from Los Angeles? Some of the analysts that I've talked to from Moelis say exit opps aren't as strong as BB NY IBD, but isn't Moelis considered one of the strongest in LA?

CS LA has always been strong.

BarCap's LA sponsors group has done well.

I know someone from JPM LA who got into Ares.

I don't know much about the MS and GS offices there, but I'm sure I've skimmed over the profiles of people who came from them.
