Goldman LevFin vs BofA Investment Banking General Offer

Hello everyone, I was wondering what people's thoughts were on whether I should pursue Goldman LevFin or BofA and then choose a group within IB. I am wondering about my career and which job would put me on a better path. I know that LevFin vs Coverage/M&A banking have different exits, but am more curious about general success after 2 years. I am debating the prestige of Goldman vs the technical experience in a coverage/M&A group. I think both jobs would be fascinating. Love to hear your thoughts.
