Moelis LA Falling Off?

Wanted to get an updated idea of Moelis LA, since I've heard it's declined recently. Reputation, hours, exits, employee retention, etc. Anyone know how they've done through Covid and/or have predictions going forward?

Can’t speak for too recent but as of a few years ago still a top office. Great exits. Intense learning experience. Maybe more recently since technically Ken (according to the Moelis website) and the HQ of the firm are in nyc, the nyc office may be doing relatively better compared to la as compared to before but I think it’s still a solid shop. I definitely welcome anyone with more recent, direct info to correct me on anything that may be outdated
