I always join the brotherhood. I usually will end up joining the companions not to become a werewolf which I do just to fill the tree and get the trophy, but to get the stone for the crown. Both groups are worth joining if you want to complete the crown as you will find a jewel for it in both locations. The harder jewels to get are the one in the Jarl chambers as you need to be thane to get in and out with it.
