Unhappy MNC or Semi-gov better?

Is it worth working for a reputable MNC on a contractual basis and receive much lesser benefits (lesser leave, lesser medical, no flexi benefits scheme, unknown PB) and only a miserable 0.5aws?

Or is it better to work for a semi-gov company who offers much better
benefits and much attractive bonuses? The annual bonuses (including PB and AWS if really honoured), is about 9k more than the MNC.

The role at the MNC is likely more hectic and its name and reputation may command a bit of respect in my resume, but the semi-gov one is more relax and stable. Both companies pay the same base salary. Both jobs are of IT nature; the one at MNC more of an engineering role, while the semi-gov more of an analyst role.

What would usually be a wiser decision? Would the reputation of and experience at a MNC really help in career advancement and job hopping? This is my first job as a fresh uni grad.
