No clue about SF but from what I hear NYC TMT is much better than SF in terms of culture and hours, also has slightly better exits.

You don't really need "exceptional" deal flow to recruit successfully. Ideally you have some projects to talk about when interviewing, but realistically with how early processes kick-off, there isn't too much that's substantive. The brand/group and your ability to interview well matter much more. i.e. GS TMT + being smart/competent goes a long way.

 

But don't VC shops pay less than MF PE? I mean, I get that if you're a partner at VC fund you can make in the tens of millions... but in a pre-partner role in VC, isn't pay usually below PE?
