Global capital markets vs equity research for AM exit

Received an offer at the GCM division at a BB and another offer from a top equity research team at a BB. Unfortunately couldn't recruit for AM given my school's limited network and resources. Still I'm content with what I've achieved so far. Im well on my way to register for CFA level 3 after recruitment is done too.

My question is which one is a better place to start for future AM exit?

Thank you
