Does Coverage offer bad exit opps?

It seems that all the trolls here always claim that those analysts in product groups get better exit opps/placement than coverage analysts.

From those with experience and first-hand knowledge, is that true?

Is there anything wrong with an analyst in an industry group who gains exposure to all types of products and transactions?

(im interested in all possible exit opps: pe hf cd) thanks monkeys

You'd expect that tho. Top guys want product groups and place into them - less probability they won't be invited back. Also, way more coverage summer analysts than product.
