[PLEASE HELP] Lateral Analyst - Should I take this offer? (MM>EB)

Hey guys,

For context, I am an A1 ~5 mo. on the desk. Currently in a non-NY major city working in mid-tier MM Industry M&A group and just got an offer for an Industry M&A group at an EB in the same city via interviews set up by an alum. However, this group at the EB is very small and does not contribute much to the prestige of the EB overall; though to be fair, my current group at the MM is also small.

If I'm looking for the potential career path of (1) stay in banking A2A (2) corp dev / VC / MM PE (3) MBA, should I take this offer? Team-size wise, I'm currently in a group with 6 analysts, whereas at the EB, I'd be 1 of 2 analysts. I was told lifestyle and culture would be better; plus I'd get a better brand name and likely higher quality deals, though it still not a major group at the EB.

What would you do here? Would really value your opinion. It's not to say my current job is bad at all - I have good deal exposure but I think career path and quality over quantity is a big emphasis of mine here. Exploding deadline is coming up.

Cheers!
