RBC Public Finance?

Is RBC public finance overall a good place to work? Currently at a BofA/MS/WF and a potential opportunity has come up at RBC. I don't love the culture at the larger firm and am thinking it's possible RBC's overall PF culture could be better as it's a bit more regional? Knowing it really varies on group and banker. Seems like pay is just as competitive as the larger banks and no problem with deal flow - potentially just more mouths to feed?

I’ve seen people say RBC pays the biggest bonuses…they’re usually at the top of league tables. Im at the the MM bank in Pubfin that does 1,000 deals a year, if you know you know. Looking to leave though, the hiring is a mess.
