Dilemma: offcycle internship vs big 4 grad role

Hi all,

Hope you can help me out with a dilemma I have. I have an offer for a top tier BB (GS/MS/JP) for a fall internship for ibd. I also have an offer from Big 4 transaction services for a graduate position starting around the same time.

My worries are that offcycle internships are harder to get the FT offer and that the Big 4 job will give me no exit ops (plus comp is shit). At the end of the day I want to do ibanking. Any insights into my situation?

Thanks a ton,
Brian
