Paulson & Co vs. Pershing Square vs. Greenlight

How would you compare these pretty good hedge funds? Any chance for a top M&A analyst at GS/MS/Blackstone to get into these funds?

How would you compare working on LBOs at KKR/Blackstone to working at one of these hedge funds, or versus ESL/Third Point LLC?
