Help: Valuation Company Summer analyst or BB Back/Middle Office Summer analyst

Hey everyone,

I'm here as a junior with an offer to do valuation at a MM firm (think duff & phelps, stout risius ross, etc). However, my other offer is with BB doing their back/middle office roles (think finance, OPS, etc) instead. Which one should I take?

What do you guys think in terms of exit opps and better pay?

Need help deciding, and I appreciate all and any feedback there is.
