BAML (DCM) or Barclays (IBD)

In a very fortunate position to have received offers for London Summer analyst positions for BAML in DCM or Barclays (Group not confirmed but in Investment Banking).

Very torn on which summer position to take, unsure whether to take the strong DCM position at BAML or roll the dice with Barclays.

Any help or personal experiences with the firms would be greatly appreciated
