Credit Risk Management - Management consulting vs top tier banks

I have 1.5 years of experience at Deloitte as a Credit Risk Modelling Analyst and finance background. I have received two offers for a Credit Risk Modelling role, one from Oliver Wyman and the other from RBS. My ambition is to develop advanced risk management expertise in banking and become a Credit Risk professional, at this early stage of my career I do not mind working long hours if I enjoy my daily work.

Which opportunity do you think is the best to get a fast exposure to Credit Risk Modelling and Risk Management? What are, in your opinion, the exit opportunities after 3-5 years of experience of these 2 opportunities? Is there any difference?
