Bear Stearns IBD vs Deutsche Bank Securitization

I have an offer from Bear for investment banking and Deutsche for securitization. I was wondering if anybody could offer some insight as to which one I should choose in terms of culture, prestige, and exit opps, or anything in general really. Thanks.

I would take Bear IBD in a heartbeat. Pay is better, exit opps are better, prestige is better, and the job would be a lot more interesting. ok JM?
