Big 4 Strategy vs BB DCM

As the title says, I have an offer at a Big 4 strategy shop (S&, EY-P, Deloitte) and at a BB (BofA, JP, GS) DCM desk. While the exit ops for consulting seem to be better, DCM seems to be provide a more specialized career path. Would love to hear people's thoughts about this.
