Currently i think that smn, mch, nin, brd, rdm, and dnc are all well balanced number wise, no matter which of those you choose to play they all bring roughly the same raid dps. The difference in dps between smn, the highest dps, and dnc, the lowest dps, is less than 300 raid dps.

For comparison, sam does 500 more raid dps than smn. Drg does 900 more raid dps than smn. Blm does 1000 more raid dps than smn. Mnk does a whopping 1200 more raid dps than smn.

In my opinion it would be much better for the balance of the game if every dps brought roughly the same amount of raid dps.

Edit: all the numbers I posted are raid dps. Meaning personal dps and dps from utility skills added together.
So basically you're suggesting all the DPS roles should be the same?? No thanks. My BLM has basically one thing going for it, and that's the amount of damage it can deal. Why should BLM deal the same amount of damage that other DPS roles deal who also have buffs, debuffs, heals, rez options, etc.?
