What's better for IBD/Equity research - Credit Risk @ BB or Transaction services @ Big 4?

Per the title...

I just starting working in BB credit risk and would like to make the jump further down the line.

I'm looking at this from a) ease of making switch and b) transferability of skillset. If you guys can think of anything else that would be great too!

Also would love to hear from someone who's made the switch.

Thanks in advance
