mastercard advisors associate consultant

does anyone know how mastercard consulting ranks up against other consulting firms (in terms of prestige, comp, exit ops?)

Received an offer to be an AC at Mastercard in Chicago;

50% of me wants to just accept the offer and quit stressing about FT jobs

50% of me wants to keep looking (I have interviews at LEK, Deloitte GPS, LinkedIn SOAR, Liberty Mutual Corp Strat,--waiting on PwC, EY, Altman Solon, etc)

Advice/thoughts/comments all welcome! Please help me out!
