Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac or keep looking

Hi, 

I recently got an offer with ~ 1 week to accept for a position as a Cap Markets analyst at FM. I am currently at a target school for tech and have a more tech-focused degree. I am in the interview process with 3 other companies (JPM, Point72, etc) and I am unsure of what to do, as the pay is lower than expected. Declining and not getting anything would be rough, but I want to explore opportunities and it seems the 1 week (maybe 2 weeks if they allow me to extend) would not be enough (I am going to communicate that I have a pending offer to other firms). Although I am unsure of any legal consequences (is not mentioned in the letter) I have had multiple of their directors reach out to me to let me know if there's anything they can do to help make up my mind and I feel a bit pressured. Any advice?
