Valuations Vs. Commercial/Corporate Banking at BB for lateraling into IB

If you received two offers, one is valuations at MM banks, like Duff&Phelps and Houlihan Lokey, and one is Commercial/Corporate Banking at BB, such as JPM/Citi/BofA. Which one would you choose for lateraling into IB? Just a hypothetical question: which one would it be easier for IB exit opps?
