IFC investment analyst vs BB IB Associate?

Hi all,

I am a third year analyst working in a Mid office for a BB IB.

Received an offer to move to Front office role as an Associate. Also, received an offer from IFC for a position of investment analyst in SE region.

My final aim is to go for MBA after 2 years -> Join a role to develop more business sense and pay debts (Could be PE/VC/Product) -> Self start.

Happy to add more details, so just please let me know.

Would be grateful for any advice or help!

Thank you.
