Probably boutique, but make sure that you get a good feel for what the leadership and culture are like. It’s often difficult or impossible to just switch teams at a small place. Also, compare benefits. Some boutiques have astonishingly bad benefits, although many are great.

that makes a lot of sense - thank you!

Boutique if money is the deciding factor but Big 4 if you are also looking to diversify to a different skill set in near future.
