Better Name vs Better Experience

I'm a first-year uni student. For this summer, I have 2 internship offers. An operations internship at Amazon and a finance/accounting internship at a mid-sized construction company. Which internship would put me in a better position for investment banking summer applications?

The experience would be nice from the other company, but definitely Amazon and it’s not close. You’ll probably pick up different and more transferable skills at Amazon actually.
