Question On Houlihan / Moelis / Lazard

Was wondering which groups at Houlihan, Moelis, and Lazard are the best overall considering experience, culture, exits, etc. I have offers for two of them and am interviewing for another. Also curious to hear where you would pick if you could choose between the three. I think M&A experience is what I prefer over restructuring but would be open to getting a mix of both. For industry I would probably want to go TMT, Healthcare, or Generalist but am pretty open on that front. Thanks a lot in advance for any help here guys.
