Goldman Global Markets vs KeyBanc vs MS PubFin

Hi all, as the title says, received a SD invite for Goldman's GM team (basically S&T), an offer from Key's IB tech group, and a 2nd round with Morgan Stanley's PubFin team. All offers for Summer Analyst positions.

My goal is ideally IB or any role where I can exit to an innovation-centric platform like VC or entrepreneurship (I'm also considering MBB, if that's a possibility down the road). 

All really different offers, and I'm not sure if the name premium from Goldman would be better than an actual IB offer from a decent MM tech group in KeyBanc (advised SumoLogic, Rockwell Automation in M&A, but mostly capital markets) or Morgan Stanley's public finance group, which is also solid. 

Would appreciate your thoughts! 

Small topics for a sober day, I'll admit. 

 

Thanks for your reply! Just curious if you had any thoughts on MS - pubfin seems closer to IB, and I’m unsure what the lateral process might look like to be honest from either opportunity if whatever I select is not a great fit. 

 

Thanks for the clarification. Just FYI, if this interests you, but some pubfin groups at MS actually do some M&A in the nonprofit healthcare space and have some internal mobility. I’m inferring that GS GM may still have better internal/external lateral opportunities, in your view?
