Big 4 vs Boutique I-Banks

<p>Lots of things interest me, ranging from Accounting to Finance, and I find it best to work at either one of the Big 4 firms under Advisory division or at a Boutique Investment Bank. </p>

<p>Which pathway will be better in terms of Exit opportunity? Which is considered more prestigious?</p>

<p>Do you have offers at any of the big 4 accounting firms or any boutique banks? You aren't telling us which boutique bank either.</p>

<p>The thing is I'm entering one of the UCs as transfer, and I'm deciding between the two prospective career, and obviously the two requires different academic courses for preparation (Big 4 would require primarily accounting courses whereas boutique i-banks will require majority of finance and mathematics courses), so I'm just trying to decide which pathway I should take, just so I can decide which courses and activities to do at school to get the maximum preparation.</p>

<p>what kinds of companies are considered as boutique?</p>
