Career Advice

Hey, long time lurker here. 

I have a couple of job offers and having a hard time deciding between them. First job offer is with a Big 4, specifically in their Deal Advisory team focusing on infrastructure and public sector advisory. The second is with a large UK bank on their commercial banking graduate scheme. Comp is better at the bank initially, but from what I can tell I am more interested in the work the Big 4 team does. Longer term I am interested in working in project finance or an infra team in IB, but I don't know which route would offer me the better exit ops for this. 

Any advice would be great.
