for SA position here are the offers I currently possess:
BR - Client Services
BarCap - Credit RIsk
GS - Ops
MS - Finance
While I understand that Credit offers the most exposure to actual work and potential to move upwards, I am debating on some of the other bigger (subjective) names and trying to see if I can work my ass off to move to MO and FO (hopefully) in the longer run. Please raid with your honest opinions; I highly value those.

MS - Fin, as in finance dept: reporting, testing, accounting etc?
Why wouldn't you take the best job? (Credit Risk) and then transfer down the road to a bigger name. It'll be FAR easier to go BarCap CR to GS CR, than going from GS Ops to GS MO and then GS FO.
I'd do credit risk or finance.
Credit risk for sure. Much greater ability to leverage out to something on the business side. The others will have you destined to middle office and middle office in those specialities only (unless you like that sort of thing).
Credit risk.
My only concern is that back office jobs at MS or GS will offer better mobility into MO (Credit Risk) since they are internal...would that make sense for choosing those over Barcap CR?
No, it would fucking not.
Don't be naive. That's what these companies want you to think so you sign the offer. Internal mobility is a lie, it will be WAY easier to go from Barclays CR -> MS / GS CR.
