UBS S&T vs. BarCap S&T

Hey guys, was hoping to get your thoughts on the following two offers for summer analyst positions:

1) Barcap Sales and Trading

2) UBS Fixed Income Sales and Trading

I'm interested in FX and know that both these banks are good for that product. Which one is a better bet long term? General thoughts on these banks?

Barcap would be my choice.

Jack: They’re all former investment bankers who were laid off from that economic crisis that Nancy Pelosi caused. They have zero real world skills, but God they work hard. -30 Rock
 

UBS has a huge FX presence, however I got the feeling they've been scaling things back recently... correct me if I'm wrong.
