BB / EB groups in LA and SF?

Currently studying in a uni in CA (ucla/ucb/usc) Wondering what the best IB teams are in LA and SF, and how this compares with similar firms in Midwest or Northeast, although I’d most likely have the best opportunities recruiting for internships in CA. 

 

CSLA used to be top. One MD has stayed and is captaining what’s left of the group.

 

LAZ LA seniors all jumped ship, several threads on this

 

Barclays Sponsors: has a great culture and slightly less hours than other groups. They build the model for deals.

Kids typically have great PE exits because of the exposure you get with PE firms. 

 

Seems like LA has been covered. In terms of SF: GS TMT, CVP, Q, and MS FSG are a few of the better groups off the top of my head
