MS good to their employee... GS good to their shareholders...
Dont work at MS. They wont even let you search for porn on Bloomberg.
I would go with the GS offer but I'm a rep whore.
leverage those offers to land a gig at Harris Williams, because the MDs there will bat the shit out of you to get you into top PE firms
both are good choices, you've clearly done well for yourself. I wouldn't worry too much about generalist.. often that is a good thing.
pick the one where you like the people

Take GS.
This isn't even a close comparison. MS is a great firm, but GS is better by a long shot -- and not just in terms of reputation and dealflow. The two banks used to be a lot closer pre-2007, but MS isn't going to close this gap during your two-year analyst stint.

How many times does GS appear? How many times does any other bulge bracket appear?
