Big Bank or permanent remote

Hi Oasis,I have no one else to go to and haven't used this site in a LONG time. I'm 28 with an B.A. in Econ from a great university.I have 10 years of experience in commodities and realistically have no chance and do not want to spend the money on a good MBA.I now work a remote job with a small private commodities company with a good salary.I now have an opportunity to work for a big bank and I'm wondering if it's worth it. I've always wanted to work for a company like this but now that I'm remote I have to double think it. Is it the learning experience and foot in the door that everyone has always made it out to be?
