Just my opinion from what I've seen...

If you want to go IBD, Credit Risk may be the closest work experience. It's MO, but depending on the work it is worth it. For instance, JPM IB Credit Risk teams work hand in hand with IBD teams to analyze the credit quality of the companies involved in the deals. That's the kind of work you want. Otherwise not worth it.

PIMCO Account team is not in line with IBD, but it is FO and the name PIMCO will get you noticed more than anything. You will likely get more client facing time, and learn among brilliant colleagues. Portfolio Mgmt is all PIMCO does, and you will learn a tremendous amount.

BNP GTS is an operations role from what I understand. Your last choice.

Personally I'd go with PIMCO and try my luck in full time IBD recruiting. But if the credit risk job lets you work with financial models and company credit analysis, it may be worth it.
