I am currently deciding between a few offers and would love to know the prestige level between BAML, DB, CS and UBS in the U.S. and maybe a different rank in terms of them in Asia. Thanks!

Probably DB/CS then BAML, then UBS.
1) Poster did not specify IBD 2) BAML is a solid bank, but has a shit load of problems and gets crapped on here all the time. Not saying it is right, just saying.
Furthermore, all of the rankings are subjective until poster mentions location, group, job function.
IMHO for US:
BAML CS
UBS DB
Asia UBS(love Asians) DB (been there for a while) CS (solid) BAML(they don't even have permission to do business in China yet and they lost Margaret Ren)
lawl BoA the korean pop star is probably more prestigious
Thank you, case in point.
US BAML - CS/UBS/DB (unclear)
ASIA: UBS - DB/CS - BAML (certain)
agree with dascale..
but this is from IB pt of view
I'm also deciding b/t UBS, DB, and BofA (in the US)
Is BofA clearly the front runner here? And why --because of greater dealflow? better prestige?
What about UBS vs DB?
(this is for IBD, by the way)
In my opinion,
As of now:
DB / CS
BAML
UBS
CS and DB came out stronger than ever and they have been poaching away senior bankers from less fortunate rivals, such as BAML, UBS, C and etc. I would say CS and DB are just about the same and BAML and UBS are below them...
