Choosing a Job

Hello All,

I have worked internships in various corporate financial such as an expense analyst for corporate, and a boutique analyst for our investment arm, as well as stints in project management, marketing, and account management. I took a job out of college after a big ten education as a commercial credit analyst at a small bank, prior to switching to a large SBA loan in an officer of credit position. However, I am moving to a new city and have 4 offers on the table to accept and I was wondering which would be the best. One would be a financial advisor development program, another would be as a Credit/Senior analyst (corporate) for a F100 company in a machinery arm of the company with a straight target to their AM or Risk Management departments in a couple years. Another would be a Credit Analyst II at a BB and finally an offer for a very small boutique IB. Now, the boutique IB is going to be the lowest on my list, but I would like everyone else's opinions for long term career goals. I do like the F100 company due to the specific nature of the analytics as it could potentially open up a lot of doors for different equipment/machinery analyst roles and that sort of thing. I am only 3 years into my career post grad so any advice would be great! Thanks!
