It really depends what you want to do later on and what the alternatives are. Given all the bad news about DB recently I would always go for an American company rather than DB.

However, and I think this is still important, if you really want to work in Trading and DB is the only company offering you this, then go for it! You will still learn a lot, you will get exposure to the job you want and you can always move afterwards (even when you're coming from DB ;) )

So maybe don't see DB as a long-term investment but a stepping stone to better waters
