I agree with what is being said.

BLM has easiest rotation, but is a pretty difficult class to master as it requires you to think outside the box. Learning the fights, saving procs for movement when you know an attack is coming, using all the tools you are given to move as little as possible.

Monk is easiest Melee rotation, but one of the most difficult jobs due to positional attacks and having to maintain stacks. In fights where the boss never moves, jumps, teleports, or any break in the fight, Monk is top DPS.

Dragoon is hardest rotation With tons of abilities off the GCD, but very few positionals and no need to keep up any stacks. Good for fights with lots of phase changing and untargetable enemies.

Ninja is kinda in the middle of the two. Somewhat complex rotation, some OGCD abilities, 1 positional, and good raid utility.

Bard is easiest dps class in my opinion. Can move while attacking and rotation pretty straight forward. But a must have in 2.0 raid content due to utility.

SMN is weakest DPS currently. They have alright utility and decent numbers, but with the problems they have with MP, makes them not quite as effective in long fights. If they die at all, they are pretty useless the rest of the fight. They have a battle raise, but again it's a high MP cost so only used as a last resort. And to be clear, this is mostly in Final Coil. In normal content summoner is fine and any issues it has will be addressed in the xpac.
