AT Kearney or very small IB boutique summer internship?

I have offers for a summer internship both at AT Kearney as a summer analyst and at a very small (5 people) IB boutique (MD is former Morgan Stanley).

What do you think is a better choice? I am an engineering student, and have not had any finance/consulting internships before.

Small IB if you want to move into IB, ATK if you want to move into consulting. My firm ALWAYS prefers IB experiences to consulting (exception to top 3 obvs).
