LON SA: Roth M&A v BAML M&A

Thoughts? Have spoken to some in the City that have advised taking Roths - but it tends to get lots of heat on this forum for being an MM sweatshop. I did like the culture as I did a spring there last year, so that's a plus - and their base is slightly higher than BAML (62 v 60 GBP). I have however heard that PE and b-school exits from BAML dominate those from Roths. Any thoughts?

Would take BAML. Had friends who interned at both places this summer and the conversion rate at Roth seemed a lot lower. Also BAML brand better globally and will yield greater exits.
