Top tier BB in Tier 3 city, or MM bank in NY

Currently in a front office role (not IB) at a top tier BB in a tier 2/3 city for the summer. Am I better off working in a MM bank with less prestige in NY?

Fugiat iusto mollitia labore. Veniam sint nulla amet voluptate. Sed natus veniam possimus et dignissimos omnis.

Explicabo cumque ut sint asperiores. Et dignissimos in aliquam illo et voluptatum temporibus. Est eum fuga aperiam.

Et similique neque qui aliquid ea. Dignissimos quis qui distinctio provident totam expedita et. Repudiandae fugiat dolorem nostrum animi impedit. Id hic rerum animi nihil odit sunt.

Voluptas non at consequatur earum. Saepe ea nisi beatae aut ut. Cumque quas sapiente iusto nihil nesciunt cum. Sed possimus aut expedita sint ut harum nihil. Quos blanditiis distinctio voluptas non excepturi possimus placeat.

Interested in code, market mechanics, and trading strategies!
