Barclays vs BlackRock

I got offers from both Barclays and BlackRock this summer as intern. I will be analyst in financial modeling group at BlackRock and tech analyst in Barclays. I couldn't make a decision for these two.
For paying, Barclays has a higher monthly salary that is $6k, and housing conpensation. BlackRock has hourly salary at 33.75 which is quite low, but the overload hours pay is 50 so if I work a lot I can make much more money.

Which company is better?

Like most UK banks, Barclays is going through a huge restructuring so I'd think about what group it is and how that fits into the bank's plans.
