IB sell-side or strategy

Hi! once again asking for your support! 

Currently working for a strategy consulting firm, work mainly include Investment DD for PE firms, and on the long term, i want to move to buy-side PE. in a nutshell i am not really fulfilled in strategy and want to veer back to the finance side my background permits). Anyway, been getting some attention from Sell-side IB (pretty small nothing like a BB) but i have 0 insights about how good/bad it is, so would appreciate any suggestions 

Feel free to ask more questions please and thank you!
