Understandable concern, definitely depends on your own personal situation I would think. The industrials group at CS has a pretty strong reputation across the street, consistently amongst the top players, so I don't know that you should be too worried.

Your own exit probably depends on more than just the group. If you're coming out of a GS/MS then the group name will carry you through, but from CS its probably less of a sure thing. Other factors will play a big role in your potential exits. What kind of school are you coming from? HPY? Ivy? Other target (i.e. UVA, NYU)? Non-target/state? That probably plays as much of a role in your relative success as the group you are in. GPA is also important, as is SAT (people always ask). Nationality can also be a factor (US-citizen vs. international). And if you're well connected that always helps (ex. elite prep school, fraternity/society connections, from NY area, otherwise know people in pe through family, etc.).

If you gave me a ballpark idea of those factors it'd be easier to say what your relative opportunities would look like.
