In the UK, I'd opt for Rothschild. Whereas Centerview punches above its weight in the US (last year it ranked first in the US for business services and third for healthcare; in EMEA, Centerview ranked third for technology, fourth for transportation, and fifth for real estate), Rothschild is a very good shop in London - first in EMEA for industrials and first in EMEA for business services; second for energy and natural resources, healthcare, financial institutions, consumer and retail; first in the UK for industrials, first in the UK for transportation, and first in the UK for business services. That said, despite trying to build out its US offering of late, Rothschild didn't rank in the top five for any States-side business sector.

I'd also say that Rothschild has a very nice London office (well decorated / maintained, lots of artworks on display).

The only thing I've heard relates to Centerview: they tend to want to develop their juniors into bankers that are long-term committed to the firm. As I understand it they have some kind of 3yr lock-in period for new joiners?
