RBC vs WF vs UBS (All in NYC)

I am trying to understand which of these banks would be the best choice for M&A. I was hoping anyone could share insight to the reputation, deal flow, and exit opps of each of these NYC offices?

UBS by far. WF and RBC are generally on the buy-side and is just providing financing to sponsors, which of course isn't a bad experience but you'll see a lot more sell-side reps at UBS.
