Horizontal rows are generally better for correcting posture in deskbound workers.

You should be looking to strengthen your rear-shoulder muscle-groups: Trapezius, scapular deltoid, rhomboids, scapular retractors.

Any sort of horizontal row where you keep your elbows high will do the trick. In addition, try any of the following:

Face-pulls
Reverse-fly
Rear-deltoid raise
