BIG 4 Valuation or boutique investment bank

Hey guys, I’m choosing between 2 offers. One is big 4 valuation, the other is a boutique bank. Big 4 will be better hours but less pay. The end goal would be to laterally move into a mm bank for ib and maybe one day get into private equity. Any help is appreciated.
