NJE - Starting on Beechjet/Bravo or Hawker/Excel - Which preferred and Why?

****WARNING: This would be one of those hypothetical questions comparing aircraft types (don't feel compelled to answer unless you have an opinion)... Otherwise you can just skip this thread.

If one were to get hired onto Netjets Europe and offered either the Beechjet or the Bravo to start, which would be preferred in your mind? Both are capable light jets but neither is particularly comfortable up front from an ergonomic standpoint. What characteristics about each aircraft do you like/dislike the most that would sway your opinion?

The same could be asked about the Hawker or the Excel at NJE - which would be preferred if offered both and why? They likely fly to the same Euro destinations - so would it make much of a difference?

Just curious. I fly an older Lear and I have never flown a relatively "modern" biz jet like these and I always like to hear others' opinions. Plus, I might apply to NJE sometime in the future and it would be nice to hear opinions from those who know the differences...

Cheers
