Summer gig at buyside research vs. BB risk management?

Hey guys, I am currently deciding between a summer internship in fixed-income research at a AM with good prestige(PIMCO, AllianceBernstein, BlackRock etc.) and risk management at a mid-tier BB(possibly credit risk). I want to do IB fulltime, suggestions which will better set me up for that path? Thanks!
