Barclays Capital - IBD exit opportunities London

Recently received an offer to join as a first-year investment banking analyst at Barclays in London
just want to get some general opinion here; how is barclays viewed in wall street
is it a respected firm; how are the exit opportunities (placement)?
which groups are the best? i heard that their power utilities / natural resources teams are quite strong
I am based in London by the way
any insights will be appreciated 
thank you!
