Loan Syndications (DCM) vs. Derivatives Group

I'm wondering if the Loan Syndication group or Derivatives group is better in terms of ease. I would like to do as less modeling as possible and find a group with the most down time. Which group is better for that?

Is Loan Syndications a syndicate desk? As in the guys more in S&T/capital markets who hold the book on a new debt issuance and work with institutional investors for pricing? If so, probably them.
