4 offers from 2023 Recruiting Cycle - What to choose?

I am fortunate enough to have received 4 offers for a 2023 SA position.

BOFA - Wholesale Credit BOFA - Global Transaction Services Credit Suisse - Tech IB Bain Capital - Credit

How should I go about deciding what offer to accept? I’m leaning more towards Bain because of the better WLB while still having a high paying job, and the brand name reputation. They are known to send people to top MBAs

What does everyone else think ?

Bain Capital Credit > CS IB

Only take CS if you are sure you want to do IB, even then you could prob lateral for FT from Bain to a top shop.
