PwC vs Goldman for Internship

Hello, currently I am a junior at a large state school double majoring in MIS and Supply Chain. I have received multiple offers for internships next summer however I have narrowed it down to the top 2:

PwC: Tech Advisory Intern 

Goldman Sachs: Operations Summer Analyst 

I want to take Goldman because of the name for the prestige, as I feel like that will give me better leverage when applying for full-time next year. However, I have heard that advisory is pretty hard to get as an undergrad, albeit it is for tech. In regards to compensation, PwC is a little more, but Goldman has a higher signing bonus, not that I care too much as it is just for intern salaries and I feel like I can renegotiate next year. Which one would you go with for an internship?

My end goal is either an experienced Supply Chain job within the industry or Management Consulting working in Supply Chain (I don't know hard it is to move from Tech Advisory to Mgmt) when I graduate, I'm not really a finance guy more of a supply chain guy so I don't care about IB (I know this is Wall Street Oasis lol) or all that. I just want to have the most leverage when applying for a full-time position next year. 

Thanks in advance for your help. 

 

My end goal is a cushy industry job when I graduate, I'm not really a finance guy so I don't care about IB or all that. I just want to have the most leverage when applying for full time position next year. 

 

From what i hear (my bro is a goldman VP in ops in London) its extremely hard to take a FT analyst spot with a Operations internship, maybe if you were a Sophomore id think you could do it to get a more front office job the following summer for an intern spot, but i think Full time would be hard to swing. Also yeah depends on where you want to end up
