Offer Advice: Top Tier Hedge Funds Risk role vs. Small Asset Management Firm Investment Role

Hi ,

I am currently conflicted between two offers, one is from the top tier hedge fund risk role which is mainly about hedging the risk efficiently (not risk reporting/control...etc.). The second offer I have is from a Boutique asset management firm with around $40B AUM and the role is more toward PM role in the future. 

The total compensation is almost the same in the first year.
