Curious to hear which groups or teams are constantly working on the hottest, most interesting deals (M&A, IPOs, etc)? To be clear, don't want this to get to prestige ranking etc

On the tech side Qatalyst in M&A and MS Menlo in ECM
I would probably highlight Qatalyst (M&A), GS SF TMT (M&A/ECM), and MS Menlo (ECM) - These tend to get the coolest deals, which for the most part are in the tech ecosystem (no offense to other sectors...)
Other groups with interesting deals are firms like Raine, Allen & Co, or LionTree. They tend to work on unique deals along with "traditional" M&A in a space that is quite cool imo (entertainment/sports/media). Probably can throw Moelis LA here as well
any group at UBS
This might be different when you’re in the seat but I feel like any case dealing with material fraud would be really interesting - FBG right now (LAZ RX) and FTX more notably (PWP RX). Piper Sandler also on a pretty cool case winding down Terraform Labs’ bankruptcy trust
If looking for purely coolest deals I'd say Allen Raine Liontree Moelis LA
Laz PEI and any EB RX group
Bump on the RX group comment - work that those guys do is by far the most interesting
Why’d I get monkey shit for posting that then
Nothing beats large, transformative tech deals so my bet would be on one of the top tech groups in the West Coast
GS TMT SF is it. MSFT / Activision, Google / Wiz, EA take-private, and I think theyre doing SpaceX too
This - wheter it is Qatalyst (large-cap tech sell-sides), GS TMT SF, or MS Menlo. These disproportionately take the best dealflow in tech. Similar to how CVP is taking the lead in healthcare deals
