Agree with peyo212...what kind of shop/role do you want to be in down the road after a few years?

Citadel is a HF, not a prop shop.

At ML, technically you're not allowed to do prop trading since they (BAML) are a bank holding company as per Dodd-Frank. That said, a lot is done under the guise of "market making" on sell-side desks.

Most people would agree that Citadel, Jane > BAML for reputation, though a trader role at BAML is still a good gig.
