Credit Suisse LA - Financial Sponsors Group

Does anyone know anything about the CS LA financial sponsors group? Hoping to get more insight regarding prestige, exit opps (specifically West Coast PE), and work/life balance.

Anything would be appreciated.

Really strong group with a legacy of talented senior bankers. Most analysts exit to MF/UMM PE. Culture and exits are a mirror image of Moelis LA. Have heard the people are great but first years get absolutely cucked. One of the most modeling-intensive groups on the Street. They led TPG's Direct TV deal over the summer. They run execution on a lot of tech LBOs.
