Job Dilemma regarding internships

Hey guys,

I have a pretty big issue regarding my job opportunities this summer. I'm a rising junior at a non target school in the midwest that sends a decent amount of kids to FO jobs. I took an offer earlier this year for a major company in the f100 doing internal strategy and development. I recently received a job offer from a boutique investment consulting with about 150 billion AUM doing investment research. I'm pretty torn on deciding what industry to go into. The strategy position offers a name brand that everyone knows while the boutique offers more technical and financial knowledge to learn about. I've wondered about the issues if I renege my current offer. Which one of these positions would suit me best in the long run?
