Transaction Advisory at Big 4 Advice

I currently have offers from multiple big 4 Accounting firms in the Transactions Advisory practices. I was hoping to get some advice as to which may be a better place to start my career? My #1 priority would be exit ops, which firm is most respected in the industry and can get me to either an IB analyst position (BB or Boutique), Equity Research, Grad School, or straight to PE if that's even reasonable. From what I've gathered, it seems like KPMG is the best option, but I'm hoping to get some more insight before making a decision.

Non ad ea dolores consequuntur voluptate. Eos aliquam ut dolor repellat. Iure mollitia ea quia rerum illum.

Pariatur quis ad aperiam nisi id. Eum qui et ex ducimus rerum maxime repellendus.
