Need advise - I've been in consulting focussing on tech/digital transformation for 7 years in the UK with Big 4 and boutique experience. I've received offers from two organisations with similar comp.

1) Mid-tier consultancy with an amazing culture

2) Tech Accelerator (boutique org with a larger backing)

I'm torn between the two. It boils down to culture + brand vs innovating + interesting work.

What would you suggest?
