do you actually have offers? five rings and bx have two of the most rigorous interview processes in their respective areas, so I find it highly unlikely that someone could get offers from both

 

If you're not sure what you want to do long-term, I'd nix Five Rings since that's more niche unless you're okay working in SWE if you burn out.

Between CVP and BX, assuming you really really don't know what you want to do and could possibly leave finance for like a startup, I'd take Blackstone, assuming its their buyout group. Purely based on the fact that Blackstone is slightly more known compared to Centerview to the average employer outside of finance.
