Rank of Desks at GS

What is the rank of trading desks at GS specifically? (Obviously, this is going to be subjective.) Also if you could give a brief reason for the ranking (i.e. historical returns of the desk, the competitiveness of getting on that desk specifically, best exit opportunity, etc.) that would be great. Thanks.
