Morgan Stanley Groups Discussion

I know this has been done before, but not very recently. Can people comment on the various Morgan Stanley groups in terms of prestige and exit opps. The ones I can think of are M&A, Sponsors, Mediacomms, Tech, Industrials, Power and Utilities, Natural Resources, FIG, Healthcare, Consumer Retail, Transportation, Global Services, and Real Estate

Most groups will have good exits tbh, you’ll always see at least one MF exit / groupusually.

Top 3 work experience / exit opps: M&A, MediaComms, GPUG, (FSG)

Top 3 culture groups: FSG, GPUG, CRG, (Transpo)

Top 3 Grind Groups: Healthcare, NRG, M&A, (FIG)

Good groups, solid experience & exits: Transpo, GIG, Tech, Real Estate, Healthcare

Groups I’d think twice about: NRG, FIG, Services
