Commodities Trading vs. Rates/Credit Structuring

Hi everyone, currently I’m interning at a BB S&T and likely will ending up choosing between these 2 desks.

Which of these desks seem to be a better place to start your career in?

Pros vs. cons for each desk?

People on both desks are equally great - equal culture fit.
