Best firm for Compliance SA?

Long time lurker, first time poster. Junior in college, wanting to go into corporate law (M&A or something finance-adjacent). Looking for an interesting private sector internship in addition to gov internships and I think a Compliance internship would fit the bill and work neatly with my "why law school" narrative.

All of this to say, my top choice at this point is Goldman Sachs but I'd love to know what firms offer the best Compliance/Legal summer experience. I know this isn't a particularly popular group on this forum (for good reason, given most of you are in/wanting to go into IB), but it's a perfect fit for my education and career trajectory. Thanks all!
