Highest Paying Investment Banks / Profit Sharing

Thinking about making the switch back to banking and was looking for an up-to-date and accurate list of banks that either pay the most / have profit sharing. So far the following are on my radar: Q, CVP, PJT, Gugg, Dyal, M Klein, LionTree. I don't know how they stack up so would like some color.

 

There are threads from recent weeks discussing bonuses this past cycle at both of these banks. PWP paid top of the street, and Guggenheim was disappointing (although they've never been known for top bonuses).  

 

I'm sure there is a no-name boutique somewhere out there that has great profit sharing and none of us has heard of it. Beauty of staying under the radar. 

Know someone who joined a 1-person advisory shop as their first job and absolutely loved it. Of course, milage varies and this could have been a terrible experience.

 

Anecdotally heard Dyal, Q, M. Klein, and CVP above others mentioned but have 0 verification
