How is Credit Suisse viewed on the street?

I have an interview coming up at Credit Suisse within the Asset Management division. I was wondering how CS ranks compared to Goldman, JP Morgan, and Morgan Stanley. Are they competitive comp wise? How are they viewed overall in the wall street community?

Skip the interview, it won't be as fun as Jefferies' NYC Healthcare team and BOAML HK is hiring!!

You're born, you take shit. You get out in the world, you take more shit. You climb a little higher, you take less shit. Till one day you're up in the rarefied atmosphere and you've forgotten what shit even looks like. Welcome to the layer cake son.
 

From what I know from 2 years ago, they have a solid FIG and TMT. Cannot confirm this but they cut analysts and associates right before the bonuses came out so pissed off a lot of people. But again, this was 2 years ago so maybe anyone else can say how they are now.
