Wells Fargo vs Piper Sandler IB associate

Hi all, wanted some advice as someone getting into IB post an MBA, so associate level, between Wells and Piper, which would be the better firm to start my career/ better opportunities for career growth and deal experience? For Piper it would be healthcare for Wells either healthcare or tech? Any advice would be great thanks all!
