Top BB FIG vs EB for exits (London)

Currently in process with a top BB FIG position and an EB (EBITDA sector) for an analyst position. Currently myself at a FIG BB myself. Goal is to aim exit ops for PE/PC. Aware that the BB is much better in terms of brand quality, but wondering what would be better to maximise the opportunities down the road for PE/PC. Does the top brand outweigh the strong brand with a traditionally better sector for exits?

If you can get an EB generalist / sector team at EVR, Roth, PJT, that would be better than FIG at any BB, other than perhaps GS/JPM (depends on the vertical however, only applies to FinTech, Market Structure, and SpecFin)
