RBS/Natwest Markets Trading?

Does anyone have any insight into them?

I know they used to be great rates/euro govies traders but can't find much after they rebranded as NatWest Markets. I know core traders have been poached but don't know the current state. Any insight would be helpful.

Would you take a UK FT graduate trading offer? Obviously, they're no BB but would like to know how far down to the bottom they are. Would it stint a move to a BB elsewhere after a few years? What's the reputation on the street?

Thanks.
