Help me choose STB vs. DPW (Corp not M&A)

I've narrowed down my choices to STB and DPW. Interested in either going into Funds, Cap Markets, or Banking & Credit (really any corp group that is not M&A). I realize that both of these firms are regarded as more prestigious in different areas (i.e. STB for Funds and DPW for Cap Markets), but want to rotate and figure that out!

DPW for sure.

+1 for these groups.

I'd advise to go with the firm you felt best about in terms of culture, although STB and DPW are not going to be materially different. If it's about prestige, go DPW since they're more highly regarded for Cap Markets and Banking & Finance (although the gap between the V10s isn't huge). Exit ops likely won't be materially different between the two, and you'll get to work on all three during your summer.
