Help! Google Corp dev vs. MM IB

Currently in my 1st year at a MM boutique in Minneapolis. I’m liking it and could see myself staying in if I get an associate offer. However, my uncle is a VP in Google’s Corp dev team in San Francisco and says he can get me in there after a few more months to get more deal experience. I like San Fran and am also fine with living in Minneapolis. Any thoughts?
