F100 vs BB PWM for Investment Banking

Hello guys I wanted some advice on choosing between two internships. I am a sophomore and looking to get into IB after graduation.

My two choices are working (potentially) as a financial analyst at a F100 vs PWM at a BB.

I already have the pwm offer and was told that I would be likely offered an internship at the F100 after the interview but nothing formal has been announced.

However, the BB firm wants me to decide quickly so I don't know if I can wait any longer. Should I tell the F100 company that I have this other offer I am considering in hopes of speeding up the process?

Also, which one would give me a better shot at landing a SA IBD position after my junior year?

Thanks for your input!

Assuming you've already tried for IBD and not gotten any offers, I would go with the F100 analyst internship. You're probably going to learn a lot more that is relevant to IBD, even though the corporate environment will be much different than a bank. That said, you'll have a lot more relevant things to include on your resume from the F100 internship for recruiting next year, but you'll lose the slight name prestige from the BB (though, if it's PWM, most recruiters will see right through that anyways).
