Transaction Advisory Big 4

I am in between a Big 4 full time associate role for either Transaction advisory or a Tax associate.
I understand these are very difference roles but I never saw myself much as an IB. Additionally, I oddly find myself enjoying certain aspects of tax accountants. I enjoy many aspects of the consulting role though. I'm not sure what i want to do after i exit Big 4 in 4/5 years and want to set myself up for success. What do you guys think will set me up the best when I'm not sure what I wanna do?
