UBS Top Groups?

I couldn't find a thread on this but wanted to know what are the top groups in UBS currently. I've heard Industrials and its FS/LevFin group are solid but wanted to hear from more perspectives. Thanks!

Industrials at UBS doesn't come close to GS, MS, JPM, Barclays, Citi, BAML, RBC and the like.

UBS does well in ECM/DCM, can't really compete in M&A since around 2012 or 2013(never really recovered from 07 either).

Sponsors/LevFin has been historically strongest and would say it's still top. TMT and industrials are solid. They've really been trying to grow consumer as well, brought in some new MDs and have been on some big deals recently (Pepsi acquisition of Pioneer Foods, Natura acquisition of Avon).

Heathcare seems to do a lot of equities work, not much M&A. RELL also not very strong. FIG is decent but not what it used to be.

 

Incoming 2022 SA NYC. Any updated intel? From what I've heard, seems like GIG or Sponsors are the top 2 groups. TMT is completely new after the SF practice was gutted and many MD's left? How is the M&A group? CP&R? Which groups have the best balance of good culture/deal flow?
