IB in HK/PE in SF/ER in SF

Hi everyone, I have a bit of a potential dilemma coming up - I've gotten through multiple rounds for 2023 SA for the following firms in the following locations and I have no clue on what I would do:
- BB IB/AM in Hong Kong/Singapore
- (1st round) MF PE in Hong Kong
- Alpine Investors in SF
- Dodge and Cox in SF

I'm probably looking for a broader base of skills for potential exits - I'm probably not going to stay in banking for super long, and I would also hope to maintain some sort of work-life balance (yes non-existent in HK). I do not require a visa to work in Hong Kong and also would have significant financial benefits living in Asia, but the opportunities potentially afforded by the West Coast firms do seem quite enticing.

Any advice is appreciated! I know I'm not in the final stages for all of these firms, but I'd like to have a little clarity on the potential pros and cons of the outcomes.
