RBC vs Citi?

Hypothetically say I had an offer (NYC IB) for both, which one would you pick to maximize prestige/exit opps? I know Citi does a bit better on the league tables and has a legacy brand name as the older BB, but RBC as a newer BB and in growth mode without being kneecapped by Jane Fraser's Bora Bora bullshit, poised to become BofA/MS tier in a few years might be a better move looking forward.

OH!!! It's the Lowcaliber racist again. I didn't see he was the poster, would have ignored otherwise.
