RBC vs DB Investment Banking [London]

Hi everyone,

I would like to hear your opinions regarding FT investment banking offers at RBC and DB, specifically in London. Which would you choose and why?

Thanks for your opinion! My high-view feeling is that whilst RBC is up and coming and has great culture (from what I've heard), DB has the better deal flow in London and stronger mandates. The only thing that would pull my leg on this is their restructuring process which has caused some shifts across deal teams in London, i.e. job security. Thoughts on this?
