Lazard NY for sure. CVP SF isn't nearly as strong as its NYC office. MOE is renowned for its LA office, not so much SF.

 

Figured others would provide their insight into which one would offer the best opportunity to advance one's career. Don't really care what they think about me, but I care about the knowledge they can offer.
