Updated MS group rankings

I know everyone says M&A is number one and MC is number two so we can leave those two out of the discussion. But besides those two groups which ones are best for exits, deal experience, WLB etc. Haven’t seen anything really up to date or they just say M&A over and over again.

Also ignore my username made this account a while back and it’s not accurate. Thanks!

 

In the past couple years, exits out of MS NY have been strongest from M&A and GPUG.

Media Comms, Sponsors, Industrials, and HC follow after that. Transpo and FIG have very strong exits as well, just very sweaty experience.

From culture standpoint: GPUG and Sponsors have the best culture without a doubt

 

Heard Transpo has traditionally had good culture. Has that changed with Eli being promoted?

All groups exit well. FSG, GPUG, and Transpo prob the top after M&A. Dont know if M&C out-exits FSG on a per capita basis. Menlo, SF, and LA also exits fairly well.
