I don't know how you could have missed the several other threads on this, but I'll add my thoughts anyway re megafund placement.
All three are great groups so congrats. Both BX groups will have better megafund exit opps than GHL, but ironically most of the BX analysts this year have chosen HFs instead of megafunds. If you look back longer, BX M&A analysts have been more likely to go to megafunds than BX restructuring analysts (although that's probably in part because the BX restructuring analysts aren't as interested in PE firms). Regardless, you'll have a better shot at a megafund coming from either BX group than from GHL. If I were in your shoes, I'd pick BX M&A but you won't go wrong with BX restructuring either.
Btw the above all assumes that we're comparing NY groups here. BX Boston and Atlanta are probably a different story.
BX Restructuring analysts feed into top HFs, not typically PE. BX M&A will get you essentially guaranteed placement at an upper MM firm at the very least, placement out of there will be better than GL (not to say GL does bad, just BX M&A does better).
BX M&A > GL M&A with BX RR on the sidelines since its a HF feeder anyway
