Exit Opps Among LAZ/EVR/MOE?

As someone recruiting specifically for EBs for Summer 2021 but ultimately interested in PE, wanted to get a sense for what PE recruiting is like for each of these firms. Not just the typical opportunities between MF/UMM/MM (know that any of these firms would give you a shot), but are there any top groups within these EBs that are known for placing particularly well? In addition, which of these firms are more supportive than others when it comes to PE recruiting?

EDIT: Also, how would being at any of these firms stack up against GS/MS when it comes to interview opportunities?

I was actually between 2 of these places and from talking to junior and senior people at both banks, they all agreed that exit ops from any place at this level are pretty comparable.

They said you'll get the same looks at both places, and it really depends where you made stronger connections/where you can be the rockstar analyst. That's what will get the seniors to go to bat for you and really help out during PE recruiting
