None of these are really different than the other.
I use Schwab but only because they reimburse international ATM fees which saves me a ton of money.
It's really not that complicated at all.

My biggest concern is tax planning for gains. Loss harvesting etc….

Have a reasonable amount
The definition of this can vary widely, what is a “reasonable amount?”

Retirement money. Significant enough that it needs to grow to support retirement income needs and have a smart tax strategy.

Still not enough info but based on this being your list, there’s not a lot of difference in all of those. Find an individual you trust at those firms. If you have $2MM any decent advisor can help you, if you have $10MM you may need more specialized help with a large CPA or advising firm, but you won’t give enough information to get good advice

The advisor is much more important than the firm. Just like an ochsner doctor one may be excellent and the next not so much If you know anyone successful ask them about their advisor. Have an intro meeting and ask questions about fees and process.
There are solutions for gains depending upon if concentrated in a few stocks or not. Most will require some cash or some capital gain budget.
