CME vs. Stout Risius Ross

I currently have an offer for an internship at the CME clearinghouse but recently received a request to interview in Valuation and Financial Opinions at SRR. Should I still do the interview? Not sure how the two compare in starting salaries for full-time analysts or about SRR as a firm as well. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

 
Plato:

Do you want to do IB? If so, don't take the CME offer. This all depends on your aspirations but the CME internship sounds like a black hole in operations whereas SRR gives you a shot at front office IB. I would take SRR given those options but you may have different motivations.

Bingo.
