Industry vs. Product groups

If I want to be exposed to the whole gamut of transaction models, would an industry group be better?Based off of what I've read, it seems that industry groups make for a much more well-rounded experience in terms of the types of deals you're exposed to but they also allow you specialize in that industry. Seems like the best of both worlds to me. Meanwhile Product groups seem much more repetitive with the types of work done. Am I understanding the distinction correctly?
