That's fair. I completely understand that and I agree. My biggest point to touch on is, which will be more lucrative/relevant down the line. Speaking with professionals, it seems that both are becoming increasingly commoditized and has resulted in pricing pressures from clients. I wouldn't plan to stay in either for longer than 3 years and then exit out into industry/similar role at a different firm.
