Auditor at Big4 or MO Asset Management?

I need some urgent adviceI have 2 offers, one for a Graduate program in Auditing at KPMG (I applied for Corp Finance but they ran out of places and offered me Audit) and other as GPAS analyst at BlackRock. I am more inclined towards more finance analytics role, probably client facing, and I am not sure which one will give better exit opportunities.

KPMG Pros: will get a qualification (ACA) at the end of the program and chance to move to corp finance.
BLK Pros: Salary is higher initially but hardly any support for professional qualifications. Don't know if the work is just BLK specific and what kind of exit opportunities will I have.

Also, I am a bit sceptical about general perception/reputation of people in Audit in the job market, if they're perceived as not so smart people. I really want to get into something where I can use a lot of my mind, interact with clients, travel and make some money at the same time. I am a Masters in Trading & Finance graduate from a decent University. Please advise.
