EY BAP New York City (National Advisory) or Accenture CDP New Jersey

I'm a senior from a non-target school looking to get into MC and potentially a top-tier MBA program in a few years. I got two offers: Accenture CDP and EY BAP non-FSO (National Advisory). Accenture was on campus, EY I got in through a referral because they don't recruit at my school. Accenture pays way more (like 20%) and bonus (like 3x)... EY is willing to negotiate bonus but not salary. I think I fit in more with EY's culture more and was more impressed with my interviewers there. With Accenture, the compensation is awesome but afraid too many tech implementation projects/I don't know if I like the people as much...

thoughts? esp regarding future growth in compensation, how it will look on resume, and MBA
