Which offer will lead to better exit opportunities to VC/PE? For tech IB, is SF better than NY? Location is not a factor for me. Between the two, I'd like to be where I can get better exit opps.

I'd go with Barc SF
Barc SF Tech hands down. M&A is done in-house so you will get experience with that as well as working with the product/capital market groups on various projects, too. Barc Tech has had very strong exits in the past few years so if your goal is VE/Growth/Tech-PE, then Barclays will get you to wherever you want to go.
Barclays Tech (all locations) has had amazing exits recently.
what about barclays chicago?
