Well, revered would mean admired. To that, I would say not very much at all. It's pretty obvious that, during the story, the other squads see Squad 11 as a bunch of battle-hungry bruts. And for the most part, they don't seem to be wrong. Squad 11 are for the swordmasters, people who forgo focusing on Kido, Hakuda, and Hoho are focus solely on Zanjutsu, the sword techniques. So, the squad is primarily comprised of sword enthusiasts and people who love to fight with their swords. It's so single-minded that Yumichika implied that if you even have a Kido-based Zanpakuto, you will be ostracized. Their Captain is the "Kenpachi", which is the title given to the "strongest shinigami". Though, technically none of the Kenpachi have been stronger than Yamamoto, who held the title of the strongest shinigami for over 1000 years. But this doesn't stop Squad 11 from considering themselves the "strongest" squad. For the most part they come off as loud, violent, and conceited.
