Drexel Burnam Lambert vs. Lehman Bros for IBD SA?

Hey guys,

I have offers from DBL and Lehman for 2017 SA IBD. I've heard great things about both firms but I was hoping I could reach out and hear from some of you guys that are experienced and know a lot about finance.

My main concern is which bank has more prestige. I don't really care about anything else. I'm also considering Jefferies and Piper Jaffray.

Thanks,
CD'M
