Thoughts on DB IB London?

Hi everyone!

So I attend a UK target uni and converted my spring week at DB (investment banking) and signed an offer for a 2019 summer internship at the firm. While I am elated at having a foot in the door, I was wondering what is the view, rep, prestige of DB London now that the firm is struggling?

I am becoming concerned by what's going on and I feel like I should be recruiting for 'better' firms this fall (can this even be done although I signed my contract?).

Thanks in advance for your advice and I am sorry if I am coming off as entitled by being worried about the type of IB offer I got.
