Banking vs Insurance

So I have a full time offer at a top insurance company within their mutual funds research group. The idea was to go accept the offer and continue to recruit for IB or CB positions, but I've had no luck.

Can anyone talk about their experiences working at an insurance company and possible exit ops or career progression from there. My main goal is being in a job where I learn a lot of valuation skills.
