which internship offer to take?!

I have internship offer from the following firms and I was wondering if I can get some input on which to pick.

1. PwC, SPA
2. Deloitte, ERS
3. EY, TSRS
4. Disney (controllership)

I can see myself working for Disney in the long run, but they don't extend offers for fulltime after the internship... so there's no security in landing a fulltime job. the best hope is for the manager to push for me for a fulltime position. however, if I do one of the big 4, especially in the advisory side, can that help me get a higher position in disney in the future? but would disney not hire me if i reject their internship?!

Any input, thoughts, etc would be great!
For those who don't know, big 4 do extend fulltime offers to those who do well during the internship.

thanks.

I would go big 4. Your opportunities are might wider going that option and you can always go back to Disney later.

Disney will hire you if you meet the qualifications so their are no worries, especially if you are coming from a big 4 firm.
