RBC M&A + Group Info/Advice

With group placements going on, was looking to hear more insights about the M&A group as well as other top groups (Sponsors, CME, FIG, PU&I) regarding exits, lifestyle, etc. How do they rank in exits and what is the marginal benefit of each/how does it change if your background is a target, semi-target, or non-target. How much worse are the hours in groups like PU&I and M&A compared to groups like Tech/CME/C&R?
