Software developer supporting credit traders at JP Morgan or commodities traders at Wells Fargo?

[dazzwater]

Is it better to work as a software developer supporting the credit derivatives trading desk at JP Morgan or supporting the commodities trading desk at Wells Fargo?

Assuming both jobs offer equal compensation, which would provide a better career path in the long run, for a technologist who has an MFE and is hoping to eventually make the switch to a quant or trader role?

Will appreciate any advice.

Both in NY? Always better to work in the "main office". I know that the WF commod desk would be located in NY, having the main company somewhere else can be a real pain.
