Goldman Ops or Boutique Management Consulting

Hi-

I'm torn between two paths; tech-centric ops role at Goldman or management consultant role at a boutique that only engages with the asset management / wealth management space. Comp is comparable, bonus is higher on the management consulting side.

From an exit ops perspective, I'd like to get my MBA (top 10 preferred). My background (non-target engineering undergrad > FinTech consulting > tech / PM role at a top 10 asset manager)

Which route would give me the best exit ops?

Thanks!
