deciding between both (see above)... any advice on culture, learning, better chance of receiving FT offer, exit opps etc would be very helpful

Rx is very slow right now. I don't know anything about PWP's group, but if you go Houlihan, you want to be focused in Power & Energy. If PWP M&A, I'd probably take that unless you want to get into Distressed/SSG groups.
the pwp is a generalist role within advisory.. therefore both m&a and Rx
Well given the state of Rx, expect more M&A. That wouldn't be a bad thing. Not sure for either group on conversion, but the PWP would give you a great chance to determine what you want to do long-term by giving you exposure to both.
Take PWP. More prestigious and heard great things about the culture. Only downside is they want career banks, so it'll be a little harder jumping to the buyside. If you get an offer at the end of the summer you can always leverage it into a better gig.
