Risk is reduced since you're changing industries. I'd try and figure out which path you wanna start out with, though.

If you want to do Consulting, it doesn't matter. It's the banks fault for giving you an exploding offer. Don't feel any remorse - sign the offer to secure your seat and then recruit for MBB. You have to take care of yourself because as firms showed in COVID they will not hesitate to lay off / rescind offers / push start dates when times are tough for them.
