If You Had To Choose

Hello Fellow Monkeys,

What constitutes bad work experience if you are looking to apply to a MBA program? Also, if you had to choose between FP&A at a home insurance company vs. a back office trade operations position at a boutique investment management company (~200B AUM) which would be better for MBA apps in 2-3 years?

Appreciate any input!
