Big Ticket Name on Resume?

Just wanted to get all of your thoughts on whether a big ticket name (JPM, GS, Citi, etc…) is important for on a resume for career growth/opportunities down the line. I am currently a commercial credit analyst at a large community/regional, with two opportunities in front of me, and am weighing moving to another bank of a similar size for the experience versus moving over to a larger institution, mainly for the brand name. Any help would be appreciated!

Well if all else is equal, I'd take the large institution. Not sure what your exact situation is, but if fit is between a community/regional vs a BB in commercial credit, I'd take the BB.
