HL vs Cowen (TD) vs Piper Sandler vs MUFG vs Santander vs RBC (NYC)

Sophomore recruiting looking to get some color on the firms above. Primarily interested in NYC. Indifferent to exiting buy side vs staying in banking. Interested in tech or consumer, but overall agnostic group wise. Wondering how HL, Cowen, Piper Sandler, MUFG, Santander, and RBC fare against each other.  

Thanks!
