Boutique IB internship or EYP (SSG)?

I have two great offers as an MBA that I am excited for but with two different prospects. 1) IB at a boutique NY firm. Decently known, small team and I was able to squeeze a place for my self.

2) EYP consulting internship for their SSG group. Somewhat different direction but very interesting work.

Initially entered my MBA thinking I wanted to transition from my background in Tech + fintech product/operations to go and experience IB but the EYP name and material sounds interesting.

My goal has been to add some summer work that elevates my resume for any direction I end up going, including if that means returning to operations and product work. It has been suggested that IB could do that as well as polish out my financial chops.

Any thoughts?
