the top four are generally regarded: Stanford, Berkeley, MIT and CMU after that it becomes more subjective and complicated because some schools have very strong COMPUTER SCIENCE but weaker engineering overall and others have excellent (but a little worse) COMPUTER SCIENCE but VERY STRONG ENGINEERING. The Ivy Leagues tend to have good theoretical CS from their Math roots. The large premier state schools tend to have more robust engineering UMich, UIUC, UT Austin, GA Tech Elite tiny tiny schools come into play too: CalTech, Olin College. So it's complex and I can't say. Each company tends to find their people their own way and they land on the same 4 and the next are a venn diagram.
