Winter Internship - Big4 Deals Advisory vs boutique no-name PE

For Big 4, I will be involved in the VC space, fundraising/valuation/dd. It’s a new team and growing. For no-name PE, chance to work on LBO models, pitch decks, live deal, more quantitative and ib-related.

I’m currently a sophomore, end goal is to break to IB M&A. Since it’s only a 2months internship, I’m leaning more to branding. What do y’all think?
