FP&A v.s. Internal Audit

I’m contemplating taking an offer in internal audit with a BB bank or an FP&A role at a Fortune 100 company. Graduating college in May with dual degrees in finance and accounting. Passion lies in finance/investing. Near term goal is to get MBA in 3-5 years and potentially transition to IB or PE. Curious to hear other’s opinions on which career start offers the best exit ops to either of these fields?
