GS S&T vs Citi IBD (Which Summer Analyst Position to Choose)

Hey Monkeys,

Title pretty much says it all:

This recruiting season, I've received offers from both Citi's IBD and Goldman Sachs' S&T division - both in London

As someone who's more interested in investment banking, what factors are most important to you when choosing what would be the best for you? What are the realistic exit opps in both? Of course, if I could do the GS S&T stint and land an FT offer in their IBD, that would be great, but also extremely unlikely...

Thanks for any advice in advance
