MM PubFin or Tiny boutique?

Hey guys. Question about the offers I have. I have a highly (and I mean highly) unusually background but I’m at a target. Participated in regular junior summer recruiting this year and got 10-15 first rounds BB/MM and one EB, a few super days and ended up with two offers. It took me a while to dial in my “story” and I knew it wasn’t going to work for everyone. Ended up getting two offers: PubFin at MM and one from a tiny boutique doing TMT and I’m not sure which to take. I recognize that I am really fortunate to have this “problem” this late in the game.

Regarding my goals, I’m not one of those people who is going to jump off a bridge if I don’t get MF PE. I just want to build a solid career in banking as I like the relationship building, etc. responsibilities of senior bankers. Specifically, I want to do REGL or Consumer/Retail coverage at a larger bank. I plan to re-enter the gauntlet to recruit for full-time and would like the community’s opinion on which offer I should take.
