Best Groups at William Blair

I was fortunate enough to receive and accept an offer to join William Blair in Chicago for the summer and was hoping people in the industry might be able to offer their thoughts on which groups in WB are the best. Obviously, a subjective question, but would appreciate any input considering a variety of factors, deal flow, culture, work/life balance, etc. Any input or advice is appreciated.
