BB Public Finance vs BB DCM for 2021?

Hey WSO! I have offers for public finance and DCM for next summer and am reaching out to get your advice on what way to go. Public finance offer is at a mid-tier bank while DCM is at a lower-tier bank (that terminated their internship program this summer). I see myself long term being in DCM or perhaps transitioning to coverage IB or Lev fin but am afraid to go with the DCM offer because of the bank. What do yall think?
