Tech is the best industry group (excl sponsors who is sort of a product group depending how you look at it) but a lottt of seniors left so that’s definitely in question now. M&A solid and sought after because it’s bulge bracket M&A but sponsors is best group overall. M&A and Lev fin are both good (Lev fin at CS is a bigger brand than CS M&A) so depends what you’re into. 

 

HC in NYC used to be really good before Covid ... however, a lot of core personnel quit during the pandemic (both senior and mid-level).
 

Honestly, given the present (depressing) state of CS, it's more about avoiding some of the pitfalls / pigeon holes (FIG, RE ...) than about top group reputation. 
The exception is still LevFin, although I don't think PE placement there is as stellar as it used to be.
