Barclays vs other BB bank

Hi guys,

I have super days lined up at Barclays, Deutsche, and possibly RBC, Baml, and Citi. What is the best bank out of these to start my career if I get offers? Also keep in mind that I have made the most personal connections at Deutsche and Barclays. I would feel guilty not taking their offers because of the people who have helped me there. I am leaning towards Barclays due to the personal connections and a verbal commitment I gave that it is my number one choice. Any advice is appreciated. Thank you
