EY TAS vs. Houlihan Lokey FAS

I am posting this on behalf of my bf. He has also left a thread. Hoping to get more responses this way.

He has offers from EY TAS and HLHZ FAS for internships this upcoming summer, which will hopefully lead to full-time. The question is, which one to go with?

Facts: - HLHZ pay is 5k more - The team at EY is a slightly better fit - Found a thread here with a similar question. Most people said HLHZ, but that was from 9 years ago, so kinda irrelevant

Offer deadline is approaching in a couple days... so any advice would be appreciated!! Thanks!
