Is firm prestige (exit opps, max potential TC, “better” management) really that important for summer internships in Sales and Trading?

Trying to decide between a couple offers for 2026. Definitely looking to pursue the trading aspect more so than the sales. Also, which banks are typically regarded as prestigious for S&T / Macro presence? I’d imagine BBs are the top contenders?
