Full Time Offer Decision Advice Requested: GM Finance, IBM Business Analytics Consulting, Bloomberg Financial Sales

So I have offers from GM Finance/IBM CBD Business Analytics Consulting/ Bloomberg Financial Sales & Analytics

Goals: I have a pretty low UG GPA and I eventually hope to go to B school so I'm looking for a strong company where I can learn a lot and develop a solid foundation with good opportunities.

Pros/Cons:

GM Finance: I interviewed for their TRACK Finance leadership program but unfortunately they are only accepting me to work as a general finance analyst and enter the program after two years on the bachelor level. This is because I did well on most of my interview but underperformed on the technical assessment. I think I would learn a lot at GM Finance and I heard it is well respected, but I'm concerned because I won't be in the established rotational TRACK program and will be within the general operational finance realm. I will also have to relocate to Detroit. Has second highest base pay to IBM.

IBM CBD Business Analytics Consulting: I'm a Finance major so the field of Business Analytics is both exciting and daunting since I know I will learn a lot but I'm not sure where my future will lie if I choose this path. I'm concerned with what the exit opps are for this path as well as the fact that IBM hires quite a few people for this program and is said to lack culture. It doesn't seem like a lot of people choose to do B-school from here. The home office is NYC which is a plus. Has the highest base pay.

Bloomberg Financial Sales & Analytics: The job is within my major realm and will give me good experience and client interaction. The office itself is in NYC and is great but I'm probably considering this offer the least as the job is very much like a help-desk. Lowest base pay.
