Most profitable sales and trading group/desk?

How do all the different desks and groups within sales and trading division stack up profitability wise? Mainly interested in where the largest bonuses/long term compensation growth is. Obviously there is great variance year to year, but I’m sure some stand out

I hear the ABS and CMBS are two of the best
