IB Infrastructure Advisory vs. Infra PE

I am currently considering two offers, one being from an infrastructure finance advisory team with one the BBs in NY, the other one with a boutique renewable PE firm.
While I have been considering a move to an infra fund (and in particular renewable) for a while, I am also very tempted to take the other offer as I believe I may get a more comprehensive exposure to the full set of IB products.
What do you think would be the pros/cons of each offer, any view on the exit opportunities if I go with the IB advisory offer?
Many thanks.

Got it. I've seen people make the move from BB infrastructure financing to big-ticket infra PE at the associate level, including people that lateraled from somewhere else previously, so you'd definitely have the optionality. I imagine comp at BB IB would also be higher than at the boutique shop, but like the poster said below it does delay what you really want to do by x years.
